Managing the multi-session Event branding tab

The multiple-session Event branding tab lets you apply color to certain visual elements of the event so that your event visually matches your company's branding. As you customize and apply color to elements, a preview of the colors is updated and displayed—in real-time—in the preview panel, giving you a preview of the following areas of the event:

The colors selected for event branding are automatically applied to their respective elements on all attendee-facing pages.

Hosts can also customize e-badges by matching e-badge color and font to their overall event branding. Additionally, when hosts use the Event Branding tab in the event creation setup, their desktop branding choices will apply and map to the Zoom Events Companion app’s lobby on mobile devices.

Note: All settings configured in the Event branding tab—including the color palette color settings and the colors set at each of the elements—are carried over to a duplicated event.
