Event Photo Wall Live Display with Poolr
Poolr by MRVL turns guest photos into a live event wall display. Guests scan a QR code on their phone, upload photos from any browser, and they appear instantly on your event screen as a real-time photo feed.
How the Live Photo Wall Works
The live photo wall is a feature of Poolr's Occasion+ tier and higher. Once your event is set up, you generate a unique QR code and display it at your venue on a poster, screen, or printed card. Every guest who scans it lands on a simple upload page, no app download or account creation required. Photos upload at full resolution directly into your shared gallery. Your event display screen, connected to any device with a web browser, refreshes in real-time to show new photos as they arrive. It works on any size screen from a tablet to a projector, making it ideal for weddings, corporate events, birthday parties, or community gatherings.
Real-Time Moderation and Display Control
Every photo appears in a live moderation queue before it hits the wall. You control what displays. Want to filter out blurry shots or unwanted content before guests see it on screen. Poolr lets you approve or reject photos on the fly. The display automatically refreshes, so your event wall stays curated and relevant throughout the day. This is especially useful for corporate events, church gatherings, or any occasion where brand safety or image quality matters.
Full Photo Collection Plus Live Display
The live wall is just one part of Poolr. Every photo that uploads stays in your permanent shared gallery, accessible after the event ends. Unlike a display-only service, Poolr gives you full-resolution downloads, a custom photobook that can be printed automatically, bulk ZIP export, and even face recognition to create a highlight reel of key moments. Your guests get permanent access to the album too, so the photos live beyond the event day itself.
Pricing for Live Photo Wall Events
The live photo wall feature comes with Occasion+ (£19.99 per event, unlimited photos, never expires) or Forever (£34.99 per event, 2 years retention plus face recognition and AI features). For hosts who run multiple events throughout the year, the Host+ annual pass costs £49.99 and gives you access to live display across all your events. Wedding planners and venues offering the service to clients can use the Pro Organiser tier (£9.99 per month or £89.99 per year) or Teams (£79 per month or £699 per year for larger teams).
Setting Up Your Event Display Screen
Connect any tablet, laptop, or smart TV to your venue WiFi. Open the Poolr event dashboard in a browser and load the live wall view. Leave it running throughout your event. The screen displays incoming photos in a gallery grid, refreshing automatically as guests upload. You can pause the feed, skip photos, or adjust layout settings from your phone while hosting. Works on iOS, Android, and web.
Beyond the Wall: What Happens After
Once your event ends, the live wall feature stops, but your photo collection remains. Guests can download individual photos or you can generate a printed photobook from the full gallery. Professional event photographers and planners often use Poolr alongside their own work, giving clients instant wall displays on the day and professional albums delivered afterward. The shared gallery also doubles as an archive for your team to review coverage.

Frequently asked questions
Do guests need to download an app to upload photos to the live wall?
No. Guests scan the QR code and upload straight from their phone's browser. No app, no account, no friction. It takes about 10 seconds per photo.
Can I moderate photos before they appear on the live display?
Yes. Every photo enters a live approval queue. You can reject or approve each one before it appears on the wall. Perfect for filtering blurry shots or ensuring brand safety.
What screen sizes work with the live photo wall display?
Any. Tablet, laptop, monitor, projector, smart TV. Any device with a browser and internet connection can run the live wall feed.
Can I use the same photo pool at multiple venues?
Each event gets its own QR code and gallery. For multiple concurrent events, create separate events in Poolr. Host+ or Pro Organiser tiers make managing multiple events simpler.
What happens to the photos after the event?
They stay in your permanent shared gallery. Guests keep access, you can download them, print a photobook, or export as ZIP. The live wall feature stops, but your photos don't.
Do I need special software to run the live wall?
No. Just open the Poolr dashboard in any web browser. The live wall works on any connected screen with WiFi and a browser.
