How brands use social walls for virtual events
Social walls drive engagement and create buzz at Dell Technologies's virtual event
For Dell Technologies World, TK Events utilized the Swoogo registration platform that integrates with their virtual venue. The design of the virtual venue incorporated the social feed via iframe into their virtual Canada House. The social wall design made it look like part of the virtual room and created a smooth user experience in a 3D space. That social wall was a big hit, and the wall turned into a living, ongoing attendee conversation.
An engaging virtual event wall integrated into the Showstopper dance competition
This social media wall allowed Showstopper to create a virtual audience so that anyone watching could cheer on teammates and celebrate wins at home. They embedded the wall into the “virtual competition room”. It helped them keep social media engagement up and spread the word about the event.
Tomorrowland dance festival used the social wall to showcase sponsors and boost engagement
The annual electronic dance festival Tomorrowland held its first-ever virtual festival in 2020. It created an engaging and imaginative virtual 3D environment for attendees. They could navigate a virtual island freely to “visit” various music stages, as well as a social wall set up for the event.
