Building Your Agenda on Desktop
On desktop (new this year!) and mobile, you can build your own personal agenda to help you keep track of what sessions you're interested in attending and save a seat for limited-capacity sessions.
Seat reservations open August 20 for VIP pass holders and August 27 for General Admission pass holders.
This document covers the following:
- Agenda overview
- Search and filter sessions
- Search rules

Agenda overview
The times on the agenda will display based on Eastern Standard Time (EST). Click on any session card to view additional details, such as a session description, speakers, sponsors, and downloadable takeaways (if applicable).
The desktop agenda provides 3 options for viewing the content.
3 Day View: View the full agenda in 3 columns by day. Tuesday events will appear at the top and can be minimized.
Single Day View: View all sessions in a calendar format, organized by time and session type. Scroll over to see the full agenda of content happening at a specific time. Use the Event Day menu to switch between days.
Grid View: View a list of all sessions in chronological order. Use the Event Day menu to filter by day.
Search and filter sessions
You can use the global search bar to search for a session by keyword. The search field queries session names only. Please use the other filters to help narrow your search.
Filter by Favorited and Reserved Sessions: At the top of the agenda filters, you can navigate the following three tabs.
- All Sessions - this shows all sessions happening at INBOUND.
- My Favorites - this is your own personal agenda, curated by you, showing both sessions you’ve favorited and sessions you’ve saved a seat for.
- Saved Seats - this displays only sessions you've saved a seat for.
Filter by Session Type: You can view all session types or click on the dropdown menu to select one session type to view.
Filter by Seating: You can view sessions with unlimited seating or sessions that will require reservation.
Filter by Livestream: You can toggle on the livestream filter to only see sessions that'll be appearing live on HubSpot's YouTube channel.
Filter by Content Type: When you expand the content filters, you can apply tags to narrow your results by specific topics.
The search and filter function is very similar for Speakers. On the Speakers page, you can search by name, filter by session type, and select content tags to see which speakers are talking about the topics you're most interested in.
Search rules
TLDR: When searching for sessions, use one filter at a time for Session Type, Seating, and Livestream. Select multiple Content Focus Tags for wider search results. Check your settings before searching, and clear filters on the "All Sessions" tab for a new search. Mixing filters might limit what you find, so be cautious with your search choices.
- Session Type, Seating, and Livestream filters all follow "AND" logic, and you can only select one option. This means that if you choose "Main Stage" from the Session Type filter, "Unlimited Seating" from the Seating filter, and toggle "Show Livestream Sessions Only" on, it will only show you sessions that meet all 3 of those criteria.
- We recommend only using one of these filters at a time when searching as you can negate your search results. For example, if you choose "Education Session" from the Session Type filter and "Unlimited Seating" from the Seating filter, you will get zero results since all Education Sessions require seat reservations.
- Content Focus Tags (these are tags listed under the categories: Marketing, Sales, Customer Success, Culture & Trends, GTM Data & Systems, RevOps, and HubSpot Products) follow "OR" logic, and you can select as many options as you like. This means that the more tags you select, the wider your search results will be since the filtering functionality follows “OR” logic, meaning any session containing at least one tag you selected will appear in your search results.
- We recommend selecting as many content focus tags as you like, and you can try pairing this selection with one of the other search filters (Session Type, Seating, and Livestream) to narrow your results further.
- Make sure you check your settings before applying filters or entering a keyword into the search bar.
- If you’re in the "All Sessions" tab before applying filters or searching by keyword, you’ll be searching the full programming lineup.
- If you tap on the "My Favorites" tab before applying filters, however, your search results will only show sessions you have favorited. The same applies to the "Saved Seats" tab—your search results will only display sessions you have Saved a Seat for.
- Tip: Be sure to click the "Clear All Filters" button and make sure you are on the "All Sessions" tab before starting a fresh search.
Build your personal agenda
You can click the Favorite ("heart" icon) button in the lower left-hand corner of the session card to add that session to your personal agenda. Every session has a Favorite button. You can favorite as many sessions as you would like, even if they are occurring at the same time. Once you favorite a session, you can navigate to the My Favorites tab at the top of the agenda filters to view your entire curated schedule. The heart icon will fill in and change to "Unfavorite" once you've successfully added the session to your agenda.
NOTE: You must be logged into your account with the email you registered with and the ticket number you received in your confirmation email.
Sharing and exporting sessions to your calendar
Attendees can export single sessions to their personal calendars by clicking into a session card from the agenda and tapping the add to calendar buttons, which will prompt a New Event pop-up and allow you to save the session details to your preferred calendar.
You can share your personal agenda by navigating to "My Favorites" and clicking the social sharing buttons. You can also compare and coordinate your agenda with your friend or colleague by sharing the direct link.
Save a seat for limited-capacity sessions
Not all sessions require you to save a seat! If a session does require you to save a seat, it will say "Reservation Required" at the top of the session card. The Save a Seat button will appear next to the Favorite button. When you click Save a Seat, the chair icon will fill in and change to say "Unreserve Seat" and the label will change to "Reserved," indicating that you have successfully reserved a spot in that session.
If a session card does not have a "Reservation Required" label and a Save a Seat button, rest assured, it has no capacity restrictions. Only Education Sessions, Deep Dives, and select Meetups require you to save a seat.
Once you save a seat, you can click on the Saved Seats tab at the top of the agenda filters to view all the sessions you have saved a seat for. If you change your mind, you can always unregister by clicking the Unreserve Seat button on that same session card again to remove your spot. We’ve added more programming options this year, which means more Deep Dives, Meetups, and Education Sessions. We ask that you only save seats for sessions you intend on attending so that everyone has an opportunity to participate in our limited-capacity sessions.
Seat reservations open August 20 for VIP pass holders and August 27 for General Admission pass holders.
You cannot save a seat for two sessions happening at the same time. If you try to save a seat to conflicting sessions (in other words, two sessions with overlapping times), you will receive a notification that the session you are trying to save a seat for overlaps with a session you are already registered for and be prompted to remove your existing saved seat first.
Notes:
- Saving a seat will automatically add the session to your My Favorites tab. However, favoriting a session that requires registration will NOT automatically save your seat, but you will receive a pop-up prompting you to do so.
- You must be logged into your account with the email you registered with and the ticket number you received in your confirmation email.
- Seats saved on desktop will reflect in your mobile app.
Checking into a limited-capacity session
If you saved a seat for a limited-capacity session, you would simply scan your badge with an INBOUND staff member at the door to check into your session.
- You must arrive 5+ minutes before your session to claim your saved seat. After the 5-minute mark, we will release seats to our standby line.
- If the session capacity is full and you were unable to save a seat, be sure to get there early to get into a standby line. Please note, we cannot guarantee session admission for the standby line.
