No. To attend an in-person gathering, each member of your group will need an individual ticket to enter the host site venue at check-in. And to attend online, each member of your group will need an individual ticket to participate in interactive elements of the Online Experience.
It is preferred that you enter all names and email addresses of attendees in your group at the time of registration, but it is not required. If you do not have the names of all parties in your group when registering, the online system will add an open “empty” registration for each unknown guest corresponding to the number of tickets purchased. You will need to add guest names and unique email addresses prior to the event.
Not currently. Tickets may be purchased in bulk but are sold at individual rates. That said, some groups may wish to host a private viewing. For information about hosting opportunities for both large and small groups, as well as private and public viewings, go to GlobalLeadership.org/host.
