The all-in-one platform for event websites.

Both get the full Plot platform. On Core you build and run the site yourself, with our help centre, AI answers and human support behind you. On Managed, a dedicated designer builds a bespoke site with you, sets up your ticketing, CRM and tracking, and stays your named contact all year. On both plans, your team adds its own events and content.

Core gives you the visual editor and over 40 layouts to style the site yourself. If you'd rather our design team built it, that's what Managed is for, and you can upgrade at any time.

On Managed, ongoing design support includes styling pages and adding or reorganising page layouts within Plot, with a fair-use guideline of one hour per monthly billing period. If your requests are likely to exceed that, we will discuss priorities and any additional charges with you first; we will not charge extra without your agreement. Unused time does not roll over. The initial design, annual review and included annual rebrand redesign are separate from this guideline. It does not cover artwork, copywriting, adding your events and content, or building custom features.

No, that stays with your team. If you use one of our ticketing integrations, your events sync in automatically anyway. Design changes come under your ongoing design support, and your named contact handles everything else.

Your site keeps running at full speed. We never throttle or cap it. Extra bandwidth is £0.05 per GB plus VAT, added to your next eligible monthly subscription invoice after your usage period, and we'll email you as you get close. We'll also give you at least three full days after delivery of your charge notice before collecting payment. As a rough guide, 100 GB could cover around 85,000 visits, depending on page size and how much media people load. That's enough for many small to medium-sized festivals and venues.

Build your site (takes around 30 minutes), pick a plan and use the full platform free for 7 days. We take card details at the start, and you can cancel any time during the trial without paying a thing. Both plans get the trial on your first site.

When your seven-day trial expires or your custom domain connects, whichever comes first. On Managed, a completed design kickoff also ends the trial early. Booking the call alone does not. You can switch Managed to Core only while the trial is active; paid design work starts after successful payment.

Managed is a 12-month commitment at £250 a month plus VAT, because we design and build your site up front. The commitment starts when your paid Managed subscription begins. Core is a monthly rolling plan at £140 a month plus VAT, with no annual commitment. Managed automatically renews for another 12 months at your agreed monthly price unless you cancel before renewal. You can switch from Managed to Core during the active trial, retaining the original trial end date, or schedule a move to Core to take effect at the end of the current Managed commitment. Managed service and monthly payments continue until the scheduled change takes effect. We'll send one reminder 30 days before renewal.

You can move from Core to Managed at any time. Your unused paid Core time is credited towards your first Managed payment, and your new 12-month commitment starts when the upgrade payment succeeds. You can schedule a move from Managed to Core at the end of your 12-month term.

Monthly Core can be cancelled any time, and you won't be charged for the next month. Both plans can be cancelled free during your trial. Once your paid Managed subscription begins, it runs to the end of its 12-month commitment. It automatically renews for another 12 months unless you cancel before renewal. You can switch from Managed to Core during the active trial, retaining the original trial end date, or schedule a move to Core to take effect at the end of the current Managed commitment. Managed service and monthly payments continue until the scheduled change takes effect. We'll send one reminder 30 days before renewal.

Yes, each website has its own plan. Your first site comes with the free trial, and any sites you add after that are billed from day one.

No, all prices exclude VAT. We bill in GBP or USD, and Stripe sends your receipts and VAT invoices automatically. Plot is for businesses, not personal use.
