Custom Event registration fields provide an opportunity to gather further details during the registration process. For example, you may need meal choices, dietary restrictions, a golf handicap, etc. These custom fields display once a registrant selects the Fee Item the custom field has been associated with. These custom fields can be required or optional depending on your selection in the back office. View the explanation video.
