I would like to extend a warm welcome to Aaron Boyd, who is joining me as the new Co-Chair of the Southern Ontario Community. For those of you don't know Aaron, he is the Senior Manager, Ticket Sales and Analytics for Shaw Festival. Welcome Aaron! I look forward to working with you in keeping this community moving forward. On other topic, we would very much like to continue with the annual community 1-day mini-conference. Planning for such an event is a bit more than two Co-Chairs can manage on their own however. We're looking for community members who would be willing to serve on a planning committee. Don't worry about the time commitment too much. It's really just a handful of virtual meetings and, most importantly, bringing your thoughts and ideas. If you're interested in joining the planning committee, you can reach to me directly or reply to this post. Have a great week everyone!

This year it will held at the Conrad Centre in Kitchener on September 11. I'm excited to announce that John Jakovich, Chief Innovation Officer at Tessitura, will be attending the day in person as well as making a keynote address. We've done these mini-conferences in the past and they're a great way to network with other Tessitura members in the local community as well as do a bit of learning. For more information, and to register, hop on over to the event post here, https://community.tessituranetwork.com/local_tessitura_user_groups/southern_ontario_canada/c/e/1337 .

We do currently have the Special Seat Notification as a plug-in, but we use it for our Obstructed view seats. From what I understand, it's not possible to use in on more than two different seat types?https://communitytest.tessitura.com/local_tessitura_user_groups/southern_ontario_canada/f/southern_ontario_canada-forum/33486/accessible-seats-on-tnew/86960Mon, 24 Jul 2023 19:30:00 GMTfd08b0f2-65fa-4b2b-916a-cce3e88b61d0:53b54d2e-d333-45e6-a6b0-b551bbd11b33Anastassia LavrinenkoHi Devon, Thank you for providing that example! When I spoke with Tessitura, they provided State Theatre New Jersey as an example, which also does something similar to Cineplex. The Met Opera puts every seat beside a Wheelchair spot on a hold, so that when the Wheelchair seat is booked, they can kill the seat next to it. We might go with this option as well.https://communitytest.tessitura.com/local_tessitura_user_groups/southern_ontario_canada/f/southern_ontario_canada-forum/33486/accessible-seats-on-tnew/86924Mon, 24 Jul 2023 13:56:00 GMTfd08b0f2-65fa-4b2b-916a-cce3e88b61d0:873fb8d8-f473-4024-991c-4cccf5367c15Dawn YatesThis is a great example - looking forward to being able to apply this kind of messaging in v16!https://communitytest.tessitura.com/local_tessitura_user_groups/southern_ontario_canada/f/southern_ontario_canada-forum/33486/accessible-seats-on-tnew/86891Fri, 21 Jul 2023 14:41:00 GMTfd08b0f2-65fa-4b2b-916a-cce3e88b61d0:994231cd-00f2-4fa7-8a6e-fc4bebc286b0Jessica Jones-DezielHI Anastassia, This isn't going to help you in the short term but I wanted to let you know that the Special Seat Notification feature is included with Tessitura v16 and is no longer a paid Plug-in. It provides messages that users agree to on TNEW in order to proceed when choosing special seat types. Thanks, Jessicahttps://communitytest.tessitura.com/local_tessitura_user_groups/southern_ontario_canada/f/southern_ontario_canada-forum/33486/accessible-seats-on-tnew/86889Fri, 21 Jul 2023 14:04:00 GMTfd08b0f2-65fa-4b2b-916a-cce3e88b61d0:ed15d8ad-e4b7-429e-8ca9-2ca53b8b92c9Devon Klaas (She/Her)This is a really great question and hopefully some one has a great solution! We're not in a situation where we have to remove a seat when one is sold as wheelchair accessible, though I wonder how far you could get with just pricing rules for custom messages? I was just looking for a couple seats for Oppenheimer this weekend and noticed Cineplex provides this messaging to those seats: WHEELCHAIR COMPANION You have chosen a seat reserved for a person who is accompanying a guest in a wheelchair. Management reserves the right to relocate your seat or provide a refund should you not meet these conditions. Choose OK to proceed with this selection or Cancel to make another selection. WHEELCHAIR You have chosen a wheelchair space. There is no physical seat. Choose OK to proceed with this selection or Cancel to make another selection.
