Layer's Event Planning template comes preloaded with 160+ AEC events for 2026 and 2027: architecture and construction conferences, BIM and design-technology summits, trade shows, and regional chapter meetups, each tagged by region, audience, topic, format, and date across more than 70 cities. Browse the full calendar, filter to the events that fit your firm, then track registration and booth costs, abstract and registration deadlines, and who is going. On site, capture booth photos and session notes from any device, even offline, and when the season wraps, roll up the budget and build post-event reports with Layer's drag-and-drop report builder, with no copy-paste. Building the calendar is the hard part, and it is already done, so add your own events, fields, and cities and make it your firm's standing conference plan.

Start from a calendar that is already built: 160+ AEC events, each with dates, location, format, audience, and topics in flexible fields you can filter and sort. Add the events you are weighing and track registration and booth costs, plus abstract and registration deadlines, all in one place on web, tablet, or phone. On site, capture booth photos, signage, and quick session takeaways, even offline, so nothing gets lost between the show floor and the office.

Every event is already linked to the city it sits in, so a travel map builds itself across more than 70 cities as you add shows. Connect each event to the people attending and to a photo log, so every booth shot and trip note ties back to the right conference. Group events by region, quarter, or topic to see where your team spends its time and budget.

Roll up estimated cost against final spend across every event, so you know what the season costs before you commit. Turn each trip into a post-event report with photos, contacts, and notes in the drag-and-drop report builder, then export to PDF for leadership, with no copy-paste.
