How to Create an Event Registration Form

Build an event registration form with attendee details, session preferences, meal choices, and optional payment collection.

Before you start

  • A free Formet account
1

Start with the Event Registration template

Use the Event Registration template from the template library. It includes pre-built fields for attendee details, session selection, and dietary requirements.

2

Add event-specific fields

Customize the template with your event details: event name, dates, venue info. Add session selection dropdowns or checkboxes for multi-track events. Include dietary preference options for catered events.

3

Set up payment (if paid event)

For paid events, add a payment field. Configure ticket tiers (Early Bird, Regular, VIP) with different prices. Connect your payment gateway.

4

Configure confirmation emails

Enable auto-response to send registration confirmations. Include event details, venue address, date/time, and any preparation instructions in the confirmation email.

5

Track registrations

Monitor registrations in your dashboard. Connect to Google Sheets for a real-time attendee list. Set a submission limit if you have a venue capacity cap.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I set a registration limit?

Yes. Set a maximum submission count in form settings. The form automatically closes when the limit is reached, displaying a custom "Registration Full" message.

Can I add ticket tiers?

Yes. Use a dropdown or radio field for ticket types and connect it to the payment field to charge different amounts based on the selected tier.

Can I export an attendee list?

Yes. Export all registrations to CSV, Google Sheets, or PDF from your form dashboard. Perfect for creating name badges or check-in lists.

Can I send reminder emails?

While Formet doesn't have built-in reminder emails, you can export your attendee list and use your preferred email tool to send reminders before the event.
