Oversized display spaces need custom pricing that generic ticket tools can't model.
Use case
Boat shows, run from one dashboard.
Run the event site, display spaces and admission tickets, applications from dealers and marine brands, booth assignments, and event-day check-in for boat shows, marine expos, and waterfront showcases from one connected dashboard.
Who it's for
Boat shows, marine expos, and waterfront showcases.
Instead of sending attendees, vendors, sponsors, and staff through separate tools, every workflow stays attached to the same event record - so nothing falls through the cracks between your form tool, your ticket link, and your spreadsheet.
- Publish a branded event site
- Sell display spaces and admission tickets
- Collect applications from dealers and marine brands
- Assign booths on the floor-plan map
- Run QR check-in at the door
The old way
What usually goes wrong.
Dealers and marine brands apply in one tool while payments happen in another.
Booth assignments get redrawn in a spreadsheet nobody else can see.
Event-day staff work from printed lists that were stale before doors opened.

FAQ
Common questions.
Can dealers and marine brands apply and pay online?
Yes. Dealers and marine brands fill out a structured application with your custom questions, and once approved they can pay booth or table fees through Stripe checkout - or you can record manual payments like cash and checks.
Does VendlyNest sell display spaces and admission tickets too?
Yes - tickets, booths, sponsor packages, and add-ons all live in one commerce layer with capacity limits, sold-out protection, receipts, and QR passes.
Do we need a separate website builder?
No. Every event gets a multi-page microsite with themes, drag-and-drop content blocks, vendor and guest directories, and optional custom domains.
