Serving Dubai
Events and Exhibition Software in Dubai
Dubai hosts conferences, trade shows, brand activations and private events throughout the year, at venues from the Dubai World Trade Centre to hotel ballrooms and Expo City. Organisers face the same pressure each time: sell tickets, register delegates, manage exhibitors and sponsors, check people in quickly and prove results afterwards. Crafts Software builds and customizes event software for Dubai organisers and agencies.
Registration and ticketing
- Event websites with agenda, speakers, venue and registration in English and Arabic.
- Ticket types, early-bird pricing, promo codes, group bookings and invitations.
- Online payment with confirmation and invoice, with 5% VAT where applicable.
- Approval workflows for invitation-only or regulated events.
On-site operations
- QR check-in at the door by phone or tablet, with live attendance counts.
- Badge printing with name, company and category.
- Session scanning to record attendance at workshops.
- Offline mode so check-in continues if the venue network is poor.
Exhibitors and sponsors
| Need | Feature |
|---|---|
| Sell stands | Floor plan, stand availability, packages and contracts |
| Collect requirements | Exhibitor portal for logos, passes, power, furniture and forms |
| Show value | Lead capture by scanning delegate badges, with follow-up lists |
| Manage payments | Invoices, instalments and receipts |
Marketing and follow-up
Capture where each registration came from, send reminders and updates by email and WhatsApp to opted-in contacts, and follow up after the event with surveys and content. See marketing automation and CRM and B2B lead generation with events.
Reporting for sponsors and management
- Registrations, attendance and no-show rate by ticket type and source.
- Session popularity and dwell time.
- Exhibitor leads and engagement.
- Revenue, costs and margin per event.
Data protection
Events collect personal data. Store only what you need, state how it will be used, and share attendee lists with sponsors only with consent. See UAE data protection for software buyers.
A checklist for event day
- Test QR scanning on your devices and in the venue's network conditions.
- Print a backup attendee list.
- Assign staff to registration, badge reprints and exhibitor support.
- Keep a separate fast lane for VIPs and speakers.
- Export live attendance for the organiser at the end of each day.

Does it work for virtual and hybrid events?
Yes, with online sessions, recordings and attendance tracking.
Can it handle thousands of attendees?
Yes. We plan capacity and test check-in speed ahead of large events.
