Multiple locations

If you operate from more than one address, Session lets you set up each as a location and assign sessions to them. Customers can browse the full calendar or filter to just one location.

Single-address? You don't need to do anything: your account has one default location with one address.

When you'd use multiple locations

You run two or more venues with different timetables. Each venue has its own days, times, sometimes its own session types.

You want customers to filter their search. The location filter (top of the booking page) narrows the calendar to one location.

You want to share location-specific links. Each location has its own URL that pre-filters the calendar.

Your customers ask "where is this?" A real address per location goes on confirmation emails with a clickable Get directions link.

If you have one address with multiple saunas inside it, you don't need multiple locations - use separate session templates with capacity set per room.

Managing locations

When you create a second location, three things change:

  • The Location dropdown appears wherever schedules are set up.

  • A Primary location marker appears on your default one. The primary is the fallback for any session that doesn't have a location assigned.

  • A location filter is added to booking calendars.

The Location dropdown lives inside each schedule (and each one-off date) on a session template.

This allows a single template run at multiple locations. Your "Communal sauna" template can have one schedule running Tuesday + Thursday at Pontcanna and another running Friday + Saturday at Cardiff Bay. Customers see "Communal sauna" as one product with the location showing on each individual session.

If you want the location to be obvious from the session name (e.g. "Communal sauna - Pontcanna"), use separate templates with the location in the name. If you're happy showing the same name with the location next to it on each instance, a single template with per-schedule locations is cleaner.

Sharing location calendars

Each location has a public URL at for example /cardiff-sauna/l/pontcanna. Opening it lands on the booking page with that location's tab pre-selected.

Use cases:

  • Flyers and printed material for a specific venue - print the location URL and a QR code.

  • Social channels per location - if each venue has its own Instagram, link to its location URL.

  • SEO - each location URL is its own page, indexed separately.

If you rename a location, the slug doesn't auto-update (to avoid breaking links you've shared).
