How do you incorporate your community into in person events?

Hi Vanilla Community members! My company is hosting our annual user conference in February and I'd love to hear how you've incorporated your community into in person events.

We have not quite figured this out in past year's events. It's difficult because we encourage attendees to engage with each other on the event app, but this does not integrate with Vanilla.

How have you pushed users to your community at in person events in the past? Looking for any and all ideas/advice!
