Planning a multi-location event can feel like a logistical nightmare. From coordinating dozens of venues to keeping guests informed and engaged, the challenges are nonstop. That’s why event teams are turning to Sulu - the GPS-enabled secret weapon that simplifies planning, boosts engagement, and scales effortlessly.

Citywide art walks. Design week showcases. Architecture open houses. Restaurant weeks. These multi-location experiences transform entire cities into interactive, walkable celebrations of creativity, culture, and community. But behind the scenes, organizing them can feel like solving a massive logistical puzzle.
With so many locations, visitors, and moving parts to manage, organizers face some big questions::

Sulu is a mobile-first platform that lets you create GPS-activated, multilingual audio tours - delivered directly to attendees’ smartphones. It’s a simple, powerful way to share rich storytelling, guide guests effortlessly through complex routes, and create accessible, engaging experiences at scale - without the need for extra staff or printed materials. Let’s take a closer look at how Sulu transforms the chaos of multi-location events into cohesive, engaging experiences.

Whether you’re running an architecture tour that spans 75 buildings or a culinary crawl across three neighborhoods, multi-location events bring a unique set of challenges:
Guests need guidance
With dozens of stops spread across a city, attendees need clear, intuitive directions to help them move seamlessly from one location to the next - and experience each stop as part of a cohesive journey.
There’s a constant need for context
What’s the story behind this building? Who created this artwork? What makes this menu special? Every stop deserves a bit of background to make it memorable.
Scaling takes resources (Or the right tech!)
Hiring staff or guides for every location gets expensive quickly and printed materials typically fall short.
Not every guest has the same needs
Visitors may speak different languages or have differing abilities - but everyone should be able to experience your event to the fullest. Accessibility shouldn’t mean watered-down experiences.

Sulu helps you overcome these challenges by turning locations into audio-activated storytelling zones. Here’s how it works:
1. Set GPS Points for Each Stop
Use Sulu’s CMS to drop pins on each of your locations: buildings, venues, points of interest, and more. (You can even add multiple pins within a single location!)
2. Add Your Script
Enter the information you'd like to share - artist bios, historical insights, menu highlights, directions, or even sponsor shout-outs.
3.Let Sulu Narrate and Translate
Your written content is immediately transformed into smooth, natural audio that can be automatically translated into 20+ languages.
4. Attendees Hit the Streets
Visitors open Sulu on their phone, enter your event’s code, and start exploring. The audio plays automatically as they arrive at each spot.

Sulu isn’t just a tool - it’s your event’s secret weapon. Here’s what it helps you unlock:
Curated Experiences at Scale
Deliver consistent messaging and storytelling across dozens - or even hundreds—of locations, no matter how attendees choose to explore.
Better Visitor Flow, Fewer Questions
Wayfinding audio helps guests navigate independently, reducing confusion and minimizing the need for on-site staff.
Engagement That Goes Beyond Signage
Bring each stop to life with immersive audio content - artist interviews, fun facts, behind-the-scenes details - without needing a guide at every location.
Multilingual Access for Global Guests
With automatic translation into 20+ languages, Sulu makes your event inclusive for international visitors and those with reading or accessibility challenges.
Lower Costs, Smaller Footprint
Eliminate the need for printed maps, signage, and large staff teams. Sulu helps you cut waste, overhead, and complexity.
Sponsor Integration Without Disruption
Seamlessly insert brief sponsor messages at key stops - keeping partners visible without interrupting the experience.

Gallery Nights
Let attendees listen to artist interviews as they roam, with optional detours to sponsored wine tastings or pop-ups.
Architecture Tours
Offer architectural background, design stories, and building trivia as visitors walk through buildings and neighborhoods. You can even provide detailed information fon each wing, room or space.
Restaurant Weeks
Highlight participating venues with audio menus, chef intros, and walking directions to the next stop.
City-Wide Festivals:
Replace scattered volunteers with GPS-triggered guidance that works even late at night or during peak hours.
Multi-location events don’t have to mean multi-level headaches. With Sulu, you can deliver a thoughtful, immersive, and scalable experience - no matter how large or spread out your event is. It’s a simple, streamlined solution for a complex challenge, helping your event feel curated and connected.
