[Advanced Settings](https://support.espace.cool/espace-knowledge-base/event-scheduler?hsLang=en#advanced-settings) # Events Creation | Number of People Restrictions ## How to add a low and high limit for the number of people in each space Admins have the ability to require users to enter the number of people expected for an event as well set a min and max number of people required in order to reserve a certain space. This helps encourage users to choose a space that properly fits the number of people that are expected to attend the event.   #### **Event Requests** - For both internal and public Event Requests, you can make "# of People" a required field.  Admins can turn this setting on by going to *Settings \> Advanced\> General \> Event Creation,* then select **"Require # of People when Creating an Event"** as shown below and then SAVE. ![](https://support.espace.cool/hs-fs/hubfs/undefined-Mar-02-2026-03-08-45-7909-PM.png?width=420&height=98&name=undefined-Mar-02-2026-03-08-45-7909-PM.png) #### **Event Request Form (Public)** - This setting can also be selected within the Event Request form setup by going to *Settings \> Advanced \> Event Request Forms*, then within a specific form setup, select ***"Allow Public Users to Enter Number of People"*** and ***"Require # of People"*** and SAVE. ![](https://support.espace.cool/hs-fs/hubfs/undefined-Mar-02-2026-03-08-54-1117-PM.png?width=382&height=158&name=undefined-Mar-02-2026-03-08-54-1117-PM.png)   #### **Spaces** - At the SPACE level, you can set a "minimum" number of people required in order to reserve the space.  You can set it by editing any desired SPACE by going to *Settings \> Basic \> Spaces*, hovering over the space game you want to edit, clicking the 3 dots and then choosing "Edit Space". ![](https://support.espace.cool/hs-fs/hubfs/undefined-Mar-02-2026-03-09-03-6477-PM.png?width=345&height=193&name=undefined-Mar-02-2026-03-09-03-6477-PM.png) - Then scroll down till you see the ***"Minimum # of People Required to Reserve Space"*** and enter a number and click SAVE. ![](https://support.espace.cool/hs-fs/hubfs/undefined-Mar-02-2026-03-09-09-9669-PM.png?width=444&height=115&name=undefined-Mar-02-2026-03-09-09-9669-PM.png)   By setting this value, your users will no longer be able to reserve the SPACE unless they meet the minimum # of people that is set.  The user will enter the number of people attending the event on the main Details tab of the event. - This really helps you avoid having the bigger rooms booked for smaller events. ![](https://support.espace.cool/hs-fs/hubfs/undefined-Mar-02-2026-03-09-15-9852-PM.png?width=304&height=309&name=undefined-Mar-02-2026-03-09-15-9852-PM.png) - If a SPACE is unavailable due to this restriction the user will see an unavailable notice with a # of People violation reason.   [![](https://support.espace.cool/hs-fs/hubfs/undefined-Mar-02-2026-03-09-25-6006-PM.png?width=670&height=185&name=undefined-Mar-02-2026-03-09-25-6006-PM.png)](https://www.smartchurchsolutions.com/learn-more/) -
