Who this template is for

Virtual Event Registration Form is built for event organisers, venues and community teams who need to collect registrations, dietary needs and ticket choices in one pass.

  • Event organisers, venues and community teams working in registration & events.
  • Teams who need to collect registrations, dietary needs and ticket choices in one pass without writing code or paying for a custom build.
  • Anyone replacing headcounts that change hourly and no single attendee list with one structured record per enquiry.
  • Respondents are attendees, guests and speakers — the form asks them 17 questions across 3 screens.
  • Mobile-heavy audiences, thanks to the one-question-per-screen card layout.

Why this form is useful

It removes the cost of headcounts that change hourly and no single attendee list and turns each submission into a record your team can act on immediately.

  • 8 questions are required, so submissions arrive complete instead of needing a follow-up email.
  • It collects a verified email address so replies and confirmations land.
  • It allows multiple selections without free text.
  • Conditional logic hides 5 questions until they are relevant — shorter forms convert better than long ones.
  • Splitting the form across 3 pages keeps each screen short and shows respondents how much is left.
  • Every response is stored, searchable and exportable, so nothing depends on one person's inbox.

Logic and conditions blueprint

Exactly how this form behaves as it is answered — 5 conditional rules ship with it.

  • Features advanced show logic: if “How will you attend?” is Online, the form dynamically exposes “Which platform will you join from?”. Otherwise that question never appears.
  • Features advanced show logic: if “How will you attend?” is In person, the form dynamically exposes “Dietary requirements”. Otherwise that question never appears.
  • Features conditional validation: if “Should the joining link go to a second address?” is Yes, “Second email address” becomes mandatory before the form can be sent.
  • Features advanced show logic: if “Do you need any accessibility support?” is Yes, the form dynamically exposes “What support do you need?”. Otherwise that question never appears.
  • Features advanced show logic: if “Can you attend live?” is No, the form dynamically exposes “Send me the recording instead”. Otherwise that question never appears.
  • All 5 rules are editable in the Logic tab, and the built-in checker warns about rules that contradict each other.

About this template

Virtual events fail in predictable ways: attendees in the wrong time zone, joining links that never arrive, and sessions nobody chose. This form is built around those three failures. Registration captures the time zone explicitly rather than guessing from the browser, and the confirmation can then quote the start time in the attendee's own hours. Session selection is a checkbox list, so you know which tracks need a second host before the day. Attendance mode branches the rest of the form: fully virtual attendees are asked which platform they will join from and whether the joining link should go to a second address, while in-person attendees at a hybrid event get dietary and access questions instead. A recordings question asks whether they want the replay if they cannot make it live, which turns a no-show into a follow-up. Accessibility is asked up front — captions, transcripts, screen-reader considerations — because retrofitting them the night before is how they get skipped. Marketing consent is separated from event email so the joining link is never conditional on a newsletter opt-in.

Every question is editable — rename it, make it optional, or delete it entirely.

Set it up step by step

  1. 1

    Send the link twice

    Once on registration and once an hour before. Most missed webinars are missed links, not missed intentions.

  2. 2

    Use the session counts

    Export the session checkboxes a week out and staff the busiest track with a second moderator.

  3. 3

    Quote times in their zone

    Use the time zone answer in your confirmation email so nobody arrives an hour late.

  4. 4

    Act on the access answers

    Book captions as soon as the first request arrives rather than waiting for a total.

Mistakes to avoid

  • Bundling the joining link behind a marketing opt-in, which suppresses registrations and consent quality alike.
  • Guessing the time zone from the browser and being wrong for anyone travelling.
  • Never asking about the recording, so a diary clash becomes a lost attendee.

Most teams don't run this form on its own. These are the forms and systems it sits next to.

Frequently asked questions

Can I sell tickets with this?

Add a products field with your ticket tiers and connect a payment provider; the rest of the form works the same way.

How do I stop fake registrations?

Turn on spam protection, and consider requiring a work email in the field's validation if your event is business-only.

Does it work for hybrid events?

Yes — the attendance question branches to in-person questions like dietary needs, so one form covers both audiences.

Set a submission limit on the form or close the in-person option once you reach capacity, and keep online registration open.
