Corporate gala
Manage VIP tables, sponsorship commitments and stage production.

Black tie, seated dinners and award nights that run like clockwork.
Tables sold to sponsors, guests of honour seated just so, a menu with three choices and an awards running order with walk-up music. Attergo connects the seating plan to the kitchen, the stage and the door.
A gala is a seated dinner and a stage show at once. The seating plan is political, the kitchen needs exact counts by table, and the awards must run in order with the right person in the right seat when their name is called.
Sell whole tables or individual places, let table hosts name their guests, and let SeatSense handle the rest. On the night, the door knows where everyone sits and the stage manager knows who is next.
What galas, banquets and awards need.
Places and bundles
Sell individual places or a bundle of places, then seat each party together with SeatSense.
Seating with consequence
Guests of honour, sponsors and nominees placed exactly, with the rest arranged around them.
The kitchen’s numbers
Meal choices and allergies by table, ready for the caterer’s service sheet.
The awards running order
Presenters, nominees and winners’ seats in one cue list.
Several functions, one event.
Each function has its own guest list, questions, capacity and plan, so people are asked only about what they are invited to.
Reception
Drinks, photography and guests scanned in at the door.
Dinner
Courses served by table, with meal choices and allergies known in advance.
Awards
A running order with presenters, winners’ tables and walk-up cues.
After-party
Dancing, a late bar and departures.

About galas, banquets and awards.
Can companies buy a whole table?
Sell a bundle of places to a company and add their guests to the list, then keep them together at one table with a SeatSense rule. Table inventory with a host link for naming guests is not available yet.
How does the kitchen get the numbers?
Meal choices and allergies are summarised by table on a service sheet for your caterer, who sees only what they need.
Can we keep nominees close to the stage?
Yes. Set rules for nominees and presenters, lock their seats, and let SeatSense arrange everyone else around them.
Does the door know where people sit?
Staff can look up any guest’s table when they check in, once you publish the seating plan.
