Map Lab · Event site planner

Draw the event before you build it.

Lay out your whole site on real satellite imagery — every tent, stage, and fence line at true scale — then share one live map with everyone who builds it.

  • Free plan, no card
  • Your first map is two questions away
  • Anyone you share with opens it free

270+

event objects at their real footprints, from canopy tents to cable matting.

1:1

true scale on satellite imagery of the ground you’re actually using.

$0

for the vendors, crew, and venue you share a map with — they open it free.

How it works

From an empty lot to a plan the whole crew trusts.

Three steps, one map. No CAD seat, no screenshots with shapes drawn on them, no sixth round of email.

  1. 01

    Find your ground.

    Search the address and the satellite view comes up at true scale. Trace the boundary once, and everything you place after is measured against it.

  2. 02

    Place everything at its real size.

    Drag from 270+ ready-made objects or make your own. Array a row of tents, set the aisle, and the footprint on the map is the footprint on the lawn.

  3. 03

    Share one live map.

    Send a link to view, comment, or edit — it always opens the latest version. Export a print-ready PDF for the permit desk and the full count as Excel for the rental order.

Features

Everything a site plan needs. Nothing it doesn’t.

The tools you reach for between the first sketch and the morning of the event — and none of the ones you don’t.

Layers

A layer for every crew.

Power, security, vendors, parking — file the plan by who needs it, and switch the rest off when you print.

Review

Comments pinned to the spot.

Reviewers drop a note exactly where the problem is. You fix it on the map and resolve it there.

History

Every change, and a way back.

Undo as far as you need, see who moved what, and save a restore point before the big edits.

PDF export

A print the permit desk can read.

The area you choose, with a legend, a scale bar, and a QR code that opens the live map.

Excel export

A count for the rental order.

Every object on the plan with its size, layer, and quantity — ready to send to the tent company.

Field mode

Take the plan to the site. Signal optional.

Scan the QR on the printout, save the map to a crew phone, and walk the lawn with the whole layout in your pocket — no data needed once it’s saved.

Who it’s for

If it happens on a lawn, a street, or a lot, plan it here.

From a one-day block party to a three-stage weekend, it’s the same job: fit everything on the ground, then get everyone on the same page.

  • Festivals

    Stages, vendor rows, and first aid, with room for the crowd in front of it all.

  • Weddings

    The marquee, the dance floor, the bar, and where the caterer parks.

    Marquee · Dance floor · Bar

  • Road races

    Start and finish chutes, water tables, barricades, and the closure.

  • Markets

    Booth grids that fit the lot, with aisles wide enough for a stroller.

Questions

Before you draw the first tent.

Something we haven’t answered? Talk to a person.

Is the free plan really free?

Yes. One active plan at a time, up to 40 objects, satellite maps, and a view-only link — no card and no trial clock. It’s there so you can lay the whole event out before deciding anything.

Do the people I share a map with have to pay?

No. Vendors, crew, the venue, a permit office — anyone you send a map to opens it free. A comment or edit link asks them to sign in, and that account is free too.

How accurate is “true scale”?

Every object is drawn at its real footprint on satellite imagery measured in feet, so a 10 × 10 ft tent covers 10 × 10 ft of ground. Imagery can be a few feet off on some sites, so walk the key clearances before the trucks arrive — the plan will match what you pace out.

Does it work on site without signal?

Yes. Save a map to your phone and it opens offline, imagery included. The QR code on a printed PDF opens the live map for anyone with the paper in hand.

What can I export?

A print-ready PDF of the area you choose, with a legend, scale bar, and QR code, and an Excel or CSV list of every object with its size, layer, and count. Exports come with a Single Event Pass, Pro, or Team.

Who owns the plans?

You do. Nothing is deleted or hidden if a plan ends — your maps stay where they are and the workspace carries on under the free plan’s limits. Export your data whenever you like.
