How to Upload Christmas Parties to MEC

Uploading Christmas Parties

Venues that are fully listed on venuedirectory.com can upload their Christmas party dates onto their listing which generates further bookings for them. 

This is now managed by www.thechristmaspartypeople.com.

There are two types of parties that venues can upload.  These are known as either Exclusive or Shared parties.

Exclusive parties: These are the parties that are Company specific and the room is not shared with other users from other groups of people.

Shared parties: You will share the room with other people from other groups

To find the Christmas tab you will need to go to: https://www.myeventschannel.com

The Christmas tab can be found on the venue listing on the left-hand side

Venues can add a small overview in regards to their Christmas parties that are displayed or a short overview of what Christmas is like at their venue.

To add a Christmas party you will need to click on the ‘parties’ tab and then select the blue +Add Party button.

When you click the +Add Party button, a new screen is displayed which needs to be completed.  Fields marked with a * are mandatory but the more information that can be added the better.

Once you have added the first content to the Christmas Party, if you scroll down there should be a calendar. This is where you can add in the availability of the Christmas party. To add availability click on a date in the calendar. Please note you can only add one date at a time.

When adding a date to the calendar you will need to leave the status as ‘Available’ and enter the cost of this party and click update.

When you have added the dates for your Christmas Parties you need to ensure that these are published to the Christmas Party website.  Please bear in mind that unless you add dates to the calendar, your Christmas Parties will not display.

After doing this, images then need to be added to the Christmas tab so you can display what the venue would look like at Christmas.
