About this template

An event feedback survey captures what attendees actually thought about the content, the logistics, and whether they'd come back, while the memory is still fresh. This template works for conferences, meetups, webinars, and internal events alike.

The matrix question is the workhorse here: one compact grid rates content, venue, organization, networking, and registration separately, so you know whether to fix the speakers or the schedule. The overall rating and "would you attend again" give you a headline number to track from event to event.

Send it within a few hours of the event ending; response rates drop by half within a couple of days. A QR code on the way out or a same-evening email are the classic delivery methods; Formly gives you a short link that works for both.

Tips for better results

  • 1Put a QR code linking to the survey on exit signage and final slides to catch people before they leave.
  • 2Compare matrix scores across events, not in isolation; a 'Good' venue score means more once you have a baseline.
  • 3Keep open-text questions to two: highlight and improvement. More boxes means fewer completions.
  • 4Share a 'you said, we changed' summary before the next event; it visibly rewards feedback and lifts future response rates.

Frequently asked questions

When should I send an event feedback survey?

Same day, ideally within hours of the event ending. For multi-day conferences, a short daily pulse plus a final survey works better than one long survey at the end.

What response rate should I expect?

20–40% is typical for well-timed event surveys. A short survey, a same-day send, and a reminder the next morning all push you toward the top of that range.

Can I use this for virtual events?

Yes. The 'Venue / platform' row covers your streaming setup, and you can drop the survey link straight into the end-of-webinar chat or follow-up email.
