Turn your floor plan into a seating chart.
Drop in the PDF or scan you already have and set the scale with one distance you know. venuery finds every seat, row and section, so you start with a finished chart instead of a blank page.
No account needed. No plan to hand? Try the sample: a 610-seat ballpark grandstand.
About a minute, start to finish, in the free chart maker.
Four steps, about a minute.
A PDF (pick the page if it has several), a PNG, JPEG or WebP scan, or a straight-on photo of a printed plan.
Click two points you know the distance between, like home plate and first base, and type it in. Every seat lands true to size.
venuery reads the drawing in your browser: it finds the seats, chains them into rows and splits sections at the aisles.
Rows are lettered from the field or stage and seats numbered. Match them to your signs, hide the plan, and publish.
Built for the plans venues actually have.
We tested it on plans of theaters, arenas, ballparks, bleachers and banquet rooms, from clean PDFs to blurry phone photos of a printout. It found 96 to 100% of the seats on every one.
Reads well
- Seat dots in any color, on white or on tinted sections
- Chairs drawn as outlines, and square seat icons
- Round tables with their chairs, counted per table
- Straight, curved and angled rows, split into sections at the aisles
- Scans and photos of a printout, even a little tilted or blurry
- Large plans: thousands of seats in about a second
Good to know
- Seat and row labels in the drawing aren't read. venuery letters and numbers them for you, and you can change any row's numbering.
- Titles, section numbers and row letters are left out, but give the result a quick look for anything that slipped in.
- It reads drawings of a venue, not photos of the seats themselves.
- Very tightly packed rows can come out in pieces. Join or redraw them in a few clicks.
Floor plan questions
What files can I use?
PDFs, PNGs, JPEGs and WebP images. If a PDF has several pages, you pick the one with the floor plan. When you're signed in, images can be up to 15 MB.
Can I use a photo of my floor plan?
Yes, a photo of a printed or drawn plan works. Take it straight on, in even light, with the whole seating area in the picture. It needs to be a drawing: a photo of the actual seats in your venue won't work.
Does it read the seat numbers on my plan?
No. It letters rows from your focal point (the field, stage or court) and numbers seats in each row. You can change any row's starting number, prefix, suffix and direction, and skip letters like I and O.
What if it misses some seats?
Move the sensitivity slider and scan again, or draw the missing rows with the row tool. The plan stays under your chart until you hide or delete it, so tracing by hand is easy too.
Who sees my floor plan?
Only you and your team, in the chart maker. It's never part of the seat map fans see.
Is it free?
Yes. Designing and publishing charts is free, and you can try it in your browser without an account.
