Locations
Registry of physical spaces where events take place
What is it?
A location represents a real physical place: a stadium, a theater, a restaurant, an event hall. It is the centralized registry of all venues where events operate. Each location can have one or more canvases (maps) that visually describe how that space is laid out.
