How to make an event & meetup map — one URL for every attendee

Illustration for an event & meetup map

Organize anything and the questions arrive on cue: "Where do we meet?" "Where is the venue?" An address alone never explains which station exit or which entrance.

With sampo., the meeting point, venue, after-party spot, and the convenience store all fit on one map — and everyone gets the same URL.

Why sampo. fits

  • Answer once

    Pin the map URL in the group chat and the answer to "where?" is always the same link.

  • Landmarks in the comments

    "Exit west and turn right", "Look for the red sign", "Reception is on 2F" — the details an address never tells.

  • No app needed for attendees

    Everyone just opens the URL. Works for gatherings of all ages.

Three steps

  1. 1

    Add the venue and related spots

    Venue, nearest station exit, after-party spot, convenience store — everything the day needs.

  2. 2

    Put reminders in the comments

    "Doors at 6pm", "Entrance at the back of the building" — answer the day's confusion in advance.

  3. 3

    Share the URL with the group

    Paste it into the group chat or invitation. A QR code is available too, so it works on printed materials.

Tips to go further

QR codes for print

Open the share menu to get a QR code — handy for wedding programs and reunion invitations.

Reuse for recurring events

Monthly meetups can reuse the same map. Edit it when places change; the URL stays the same.

Co-organize with co-editing

Send an invite link and up to 4 organizers can edit the same map. "You handle the after-party spot" actually works.

FAQ

Q. Do attendees need a special app?
