# Spaces

Section: Getting Started · Page: https://artsvp.com/docs/getting-started/spaces

(Plans: All plans)

A space is a group of events inside your organisation. Most teams work in one
space; larger organisations separate programmes into several. Each space holds
its own events, guests, and bookings, and anything created in a space stays
there. The dashboard, the events list, and **All Guests** show only the space
you are currently in.

Your organisation starts with one space. Its name sits under the organisation
name at the top of the sidebar.

## Switching space

The organisation and space switcher sits near the top of the sidebar. On a
phone it is in the top bar. Open it, search with **Search organisations &
spaces…**, and choose a space. You stay on the same kind of page where that is
safe: the dashboard, events, collections, guests, portals, or settings. A page
for one particular event or guest takes you back to the dashboard. A note
names the space you switched to.

The switcher lists every organisation you can open. Each row is that
organisation, then its spaces.

## Creating a space (Access: Admins and Event Managers)

1. Open the organisation and space switcher.
2. Beside that organisation's name, click **+**. While you can still add a
   space, it is labelled **Add a space**.
3. In **Create a new space**, the organisation is named beside **Space name**.
   Type a name (the field's example is *"Art Fair 2026"*) and click **Create
   space**.
4. The dashboard opens in that space, and a note reads **Space created**.

An organisation **Admin** or **Event Manager** can create a space on that
organisation. A **Booking Manager**, a **Check-in only** member, or an event
member (someone added to specific events only) does not see **+**.

## How many you can create

| Plan | Spaces |
|---|---|
| Free | 1 |
| Pro | 3 |
| Expert | 100 |

The allowance is per organisation, as on
[Plans](https://artsvp.com/docs/getting-started/plans). If your organisation has been given a
different allowance, that number applies instead.

At the limit, **+** is labelled **Upgrade to add more spaces** and opens
**Upgrade to unlock Spaces** instead of the create form. The note reads: "Give
each gallery, fair or project a space of its own, keeping events, guests and
bookings apart." **Upgrade plan** takes you to the pricing page.

Trying to create another space once you are already at the limit does not
create one. You are sent to the pricing page with: "You've reached the
maximum number of spaces for your plan. Please upgrade to create more."

## Renaming a space

There is no rename control. The switcher lists each space's name, and
**Settings** has no field for it. To rename a space, contact
[support](https://artsvp.com/docs/reference/support).

## Moving an event (Access: Admins and Event Managers)

An **Admin** or **Event Manager** for the event can move it from the event's
**Settings** → **Advanced** tab. Under **Miscellaneous**, choose **Space**,
then **Save changes**. The event's bookings and invitations move with it, and
it shows on that space's dashboard. **Duplicate event** also asks which
**Space** the copy should use.

## What guests see

Guests do not see the space name. Booking pages, tickets and wallet passes,
invitation and confirmation emails, and partner portals show your
organisation, the event, or the portal. The space name is for your team.
