Frequently Asked Questions

Online Experiences Additional Information

Online Experiences

How can I sign up for an online experience?

Online experiences are an exclusive offering for our members. If you are interested in joining, please sign up for a membership here. You will be automatically upgraded and given access to sign up for any experience from the Experiences page.

Is the online experience live or pre-recorded?

All online experiences happen live where you can interact with other community members. If you'd like a recording to watch on your own time, please reach out.

What technology do I need to access an Atlas Obscura online experience?

We recommend that you join via a computer or tablet rather than a mobile device. Most experiences listed will allow you to interact with other attendees and your host using the chat function or occasionally using audio.

Experiences are hosted through Zoom and can be accessed through a web browser or the Zoom application. You can find technology specifications here.

You said I’d receive access to the Zoom room for my online experience, but I can’t find it. How do I join the Zoom meeting?

The Zoom meeting room link for your Atlas Obscura online experience is hosted through Eventbrite. To access the Zoom meeting, you’ll need to purchase a ticket and do one of the following:

  • From Email: Click the “Go to online event page” button in your confirmation or reminder email. You will be directed to Eventbrite. Once you’re logged in, you will be sent to the online experience landing page where you can click the “play” button and launch the Zoom meeting.
  • From Eventbrite’s website: Log onto the Eventbrite account associated with your tickets and select the event you are trying to access. Select “View Links” and you’ll be taken to the online experience landing page where you can click the “play” button and launch the Zoom meeting.

Zoom meeting rooms “open” at the start time of the event.

If you are still having trouble accessing your online experience, please reach out to experiences@atlasobscura.com.

I missed my online experience, can I access a recording?

Select online experiences will be recorded for internal use and quality control. If you have missed an online experience that you purchased a ticket for, you can reach out to experiences@atlasobscura.com to see if that online experience has a recording that is available to view. Pending availability, a member from the Atlas Obscura team may be able to share a password-protected link with you. The recordings will be filmed featuring the speaker only.

If you are located in a timezone not suitable for tuning in live for an online experience but would like to view the recording, please reach out in advance to experiences@atlasobscura.com to ensure a recording is scheduled and will be available for sharing before making your purchase. 

Can I buy an online experience for someone else?

While we don't offer experiences as gifts since they are for members only, you can purchase course gift certificates here.

Can I book a private group online experience?

Yes! Atlas Obscura has a portfolio of private experiences that are perfect for corporate groups, get-togethers, celebrations, and more. If you are interested in purchasing an experience for a private group, please contact experiences@atlasobscura.com.

What if I have other questions about an online experience?

For questions about specific experiences, contact experiences@atlasobscura.com.

 

Additional Information

Do you have in-person experiences?

We do occasionally have events in real life, like our book launches or eclipse festivals. Each of these is handled on a unique, case-by-case basis, but we will be sure to add details to our Experiences page so you can learn more about individual events as they arise. 

I’d like to learn more about brand partnership and sponsorship opportunities. Who do I contact?

That's great! Contact us using this form and we will get back to you with details shortly.

I have a general inquiry about Atlas Obscura’s Experiences.
