# A live social wall for events that doesn't depend on social media.

Run a live social wall for events without a public hashtag. Attendees post messages, questions, and photos from their phones to your moderated screen.

## What this solves

A hashtag wall shows whatever the internet decides to post. This event social wall shows what your attendees send you—reactions, questions, and photographs, straight from the seats to the screen.

Use GuestWalls as a live social feed for your event without asking attendees to publish to a social network. They scan a QR code and post in a browser; organizers keep a moderation queue between the audience and the screen, so the display stays professional through keynotes, breaks, virtual sessions, and the evening reception. What lands on the wall belongs to the event, not to a public feed.

## Why GuestWalls fits this event

- **Only your room can post:** Nothing arrives from the wider internet. Posts come from people holding your event code, which is the difference between a lively screen and an incident.
- **Moderated by default:** Corporate presets start approval-first, so nothing reaches the wall before an organizer clears it.
- **Branded, not busy:** Add a company logo and event palette while the layout stays clean enough for an LED wall.

## Setup

1. **Brand the display.** Upload the event logo, set the palette, and choose the feed layout for high message volume.
2. **Seed the prompts.** Change the ask between sessions: predictions before the keynote, questions after, photos at the reception.
3. **Staff the queue.** One organizer approves posts from a laptop or phone while the display runs unattended.

## Prompts for guests

Change the prompt between sessions and the wall keeps earning its place on the screen:

- “Before the keynote: what do you expect to hear?”
- “After the keynote: the one line you are taking away.”
- “A question you would ask the panel if there were time.”
- “Post a photo of the best slide of the day.”
- “Who have you met today that someone else should meet?”

## Frequently asked questions

### What is a social wall for events?

A social wall is a live venue screen filled by audience contributions such as messages, questions, reactions, and photos. GuestWalls uses direct browser posting instead of collecting public social-media posts, so more people can contribute without publishing to their followers.

### Is this the same as a live social media feed for events?

It serves the same in-room purpose, but the content comes directly from attendees rather than from Instagram, X, or LinkedIn. That removes the social-account requirement, keeps contributions inside the event, and gives the organizer a predictable moderation queue.

### Does it pull posts from X, Instagram, or LinkedIn?

No, by design. Attendees post straight to your wall instead, so the screen shows your room rather than whoever else used the hashtag—and nothing your event depends on can be switched off by a social network.

### How many attendees can post?

The feed layout is built for high-volume rooms, and the moderation queue keeps the screen readable at any volume.

### Can we run it across a multi-day event?

Yes. The same wall can run across sessions and days, with prompts changed between them.

### Can questions for speakers go through it?

Yes. Many events use approval mode to collect audience questions and surface the best ones on screen.

### Can a virtual or hybrid event use the same social wall?

Yes. Share the join link beside the stream or in event chat, and remote attendees can contribute to the same moderated wall as people in the venue.

### Is GuestWalls a permanently free social wall?

No permanent-free promise is made. You can inspect the live demo before creating an event, and the event-creation flow shows the current availability and price before you commit.

## Product boundaries

GuestWalls accepts posts directly through an event link or code; it does not aggregate public hashtag posts. Guests use a browser and do not create accounts. The venue display needs an internet-connected computer and screen. For product-wide privacy, retention, availability, and recommendation details, read https://guestwalls.com/index.md.
