If you run an event venue, there’s a good chance you’re already listed on VenueKonnex. We have over 14,000 venues in the directory. Planners search it every week. Claiming your page is free, takes about 5 minutes, and puts you in control of how your space shows up. Here’s exactly how to do it.

Why claim a listing you didn’t create?

Because the planner deciding between you and the venue down the street is looking at your page right now — and if it’s an unclaimed stub, it’s a name with no photos, no pricing, and no way to reach you. An unclaimed listing still ranks. It just doesn’t sell.

A claimed listing does three things a stub can’t. It shows your real photos and capacity. It states your starting price, so you attract planners who can afford you and skip the time-wasters. And it routes inquiries to you through the platform, so a planner with a date and a guest count lands in your inbox instead of bouncing to a competitor.

This is what a claimed page looks like

Look at the venues that already did it. 230 Fifth Rooftop Bar in NYC leads with rooftop photos and a clear per-person starting point. Refinery Rooftop shows its package pricing up front. Down in Florida, Sunken Gardens in St. Petersburg and the Museum of Fine Arts, St. Petersburg both pair real images with capacity and price ranges. Every one of these turns a search into a booking inquiry. That’s the difference between being found and being chosen.

And the inquiries are real. A few weeks ago a couple in St. Petersburg lost their wedding venue six weeks before the date when the original space went under. They searched VenueKonnex, found a claimed garden listing with photos and a price, and booked it. That booking went to a venue that had filled out its page. A blank stub would have been skipped.

How to claim yours in 5 minutes

Three steps.

1. Find your venue. Search your venue name on VenueKonnex. If it’s there, open the listing.

2. Hit “Claim this listing.” Or go straight to the claim page. You’ll verify you’re the owner or manager — that’s the only gate, and it protects your page from anyone else editing it.

3. Fill it out. Add 5–10 good photos, your capacity, and a starting price. Pricing is the single highest-leverage field on the page. Planners filter by it. A page with a number gets more qualified inquiries than a page without one, every time.

That’s it. No listing fee. No broker taking a cut of your booking. You keep your pricing, your calendar, and your relationship with the client.

The one number that matters

Planners on VenueKonnex come with a date and a guest count. They are not browsing for fun. When your page has photos and a price, you show up in their shortlist. When it’s blank, you don’t — even though you’re sitting in the same directory. Five minutes of setup is the gap between those two outcomes.
