No, Show&Tell has no limits on capacity for virtual events. You can invite as many guests as you’d like.

Our Event Organizer team is here to help! We advise setting up a meeting with us 3 weeks in advance of your event, where we will discuss your film and gather assets.

You can easily build the event yourself, or we can build it with our tried-and-true best practices to ensure quality control and that your page is built to earn the most from your fundraising & distribution efforts. We recommend setting up your event early to give our team time to run tests on your event to make sure everything is good to go!
