Introduction
Large-scale events are the heartbeat of vibrant club life. From a dazzling Diwali night to a high-energy Garba celebration or a fun-filled Housie game night, these events bring members together in celebration and connection. But behind the scenes, they often bring logistical chaos—overlapping bookings, check-in delays, last-minute guest entries, and billing nightmares.

In this blog, we’ll explore how eCube revolutionizes the way clubs plan and manage large events. With its ability to streamline every element of event coordination, eCube enables you to execute events effortlessly; ensuring seamless operations, clear communication, and a memorable experience for everyone involved.

1. Pre‑Event Planning & Setup
a. Define Event Layout and Facility Allocation
Whether it's a Diwali gala across banquet halls, a Garba night at the outdoor lawn, or a Housie event in the indoor lounge, use eCube’s centralized facility booking system to map out venue zones.

Let members book seats, passes, or tables directly through the eCube member mobile app or web portal. You can customize registration forms with guest count, meal preferences, and even costume contests for themed events.

Send email, SMS, or app notifications for event announcements, dress codes (e.g., traditional attire for Garba), and program schedules.
b. Reminders and Slot Confirmations
Reduce last-minute confusion with automated reminders and personalized confirmations. For Housie nights, notify members about the rules or prize pools in advance.
