The new Airbnb for Events tool gives event planners the ability to create an interactive map of Airbnb listings that are near their venues, and embed the map directly on their event website in just minutes.

To get started, event organisers and conference planners simply AirBnb about the event. From there, they can create an interactive map of Airbnb listings for their event website to help their attendees find nearby homes. AirBnb will also automatically create a personalised landing page for the event on Airbnb.com that event organisers can share with attendees and use to market their event.

While this is the perfect tool for events, we’re also working with other companies to showcase the versatility of the interactive listings map — like event registration and ticketing platforms, event management platforms, wedding platforms, and trip planners. You can check out a few examples of this tool going live on sites like Insider.in, Inspirock, Picatic, RSVPify, Taquilla, and WeddingWire.

Adding Airbnb as a recommended option for events adds more local accommodation, provides amenities hotels can’t, and can help attendees save money. AirBnb has five million listings in over 191 countries in prime locations with the comforts of home.

Airbnb helps cities manage some of the biggest events on earth, and spreads the economic benefits of events to regular people, giving cities the flexibility to host unprecedented visitor numbers without a single brick being laid.
