Free event planning calculators.

The numbers every room needs before anything gets drawn: how many fit, how big the stage has to be, how much floor the dancing takes, what linen the tables need, and what size tent holds the lot. Each one runs the same arithmetic the EventDiagram editor runs, so the answer you get here is the answer you get on the plan.

Why these give different answers to the last calculator you used

A number you can put on a drawing

Most event calculators divide an area by a figure and hand back a total. That is fine as a sanity check and it is why venue capacity charts exist. It also cannot tell you that your room is 4ft too narrow for a fourth column of tables, that a 72″ round packs worse than a 60″ in your particular width, or that the stage you just sized will not leave headroom in a 9ft breakout room.

These work the other way round. They start from the footprint of a real object — a table with its ring of pulled-back chairs, a 4ft by 8ft stage deck, a 3ft dance floor panel — and fit whole objects into a real room. The answers come back as things you can order and place: nine decks, forty-nine panels, four rows of six. Where a rule of thumb disagrees, both numbers are shown, because the gap between them is usually the decision somebody needs to make.

When you want to go further than a number, the free plan draws the room to scale, auto-fills the setup, puts the stage and floor in, and walks it in 3D. No credit card, and pricing starts at $9 a month if you need more than one diagram at a time.

Draw the room, not just the number

Everything these calculators work out, placed to scale in a plan you can send to a client or a crew.
