A little less spreadsheet. A little more showtime.
Made for small theaters, school shows & community events.How it works
- Add your seats. Upload an Excel or CSV file with one line per seat, or choose a template. For uploads, review the import preview before replacing your current plan.
- Review and adjust. Check section names, row labels and seat numbers against your venue. Select one or several seats to mark them Reserved or Accessible; use Undo if you need to reverse a change.
- Print or export. Choose PNG, SVG, PDF, Excel or CSV from Export plan. Use the print preview to check readability and keep a spreadsheet copy for future edits.
Why RowsAndSeats
Runs in your browser. Spreadsheet files are processed on your device and are not uploaded to a server. Your current plan is saved in this browser; download Excel or CSV to keep a separate copy.
Catch duplicates and review gaps. Import checks identify duplicate seat references, missing required values and overlapping grid positions. Review the chart for unintended gaps and compare the aisles with your room before printing.
Clear in black and white. Reserved seats use a pattern and accessible seats have a visible marker, so the information does not rely on section colors alone. These markers carry through to image and print output.
Frequently asked questions
Is it free?
Yes. The event planner and its PNG, SVG, PDF, Excel and CSV exports are free in this early preview. No payment details are required to import a file, edit seat markers or download your plan.
Do I need an account?
No. Open the planner and start with your spreadsheet or a template. Your current plan is saved in this browser on this device. Download a spreadsheet copy if you want to reopen it elsewhere.
What spreadsheet format do I need?
Use an .xlsx or UTF-8 .csv file with one seat per row. Include Section, Row and Seat; add Grid row and Grid column to preserve positions. When both grid columns are omitted, the tool generates a simple layout for review. Status and Accessible are optional. Excel sheets must be named Seats or Seat.
Can I start without a spreadsheet?
Yes. Choose Start from a template to load one of five example layouts, or browse all seating chart templates to preview and download them. Under More options, you can also build simple rows from scratch, then export a spreadsheet to refine the positions.
Can I print a large chart?
Yes. Choose A3 landscape in Export plan for a larger page, or download SVG artwork to scale in a compatible printing or design tool. The print dialog also offers A4 and US Letter; check the preview before printing.
