Event Ticker
The absolute first thing every visitor sees when they open Daytona's premier events page — a full-width immersive carousel that overrides the raw API feed and pins your event to the top of the entire discovery experience.
See exactly where your brand appears.
Your creative, in context — this is how the Top-Billing Event Ticker placement looks to every GoDoDaytona Events Hub visitor.
The ticker renders before GoDo Picks, before the category filters, and before every listing in the Daily Lineup — there is no higher position on this page.
Your event imagery fills 100% of the content column. No sidebar, no gutters, no competing creative — just your brand at full scale.
When a visitor switches to Music, Sports, or any other filter, the ticker stays locked at the top — it renders completely outside the filtered zone.
Built for maximum first-impression impact.
#1 Position on the Page
The Top-Billing Ticker is the absolute first layout element inside the Events Hub main content area — above the GoDo Picks editorial row, above the Daily Lineup, above every filter, every category tab, and every other sponsored unit on the page. There is no higher-visibility placement on GoDoDaytona's events experience.
Auto-Cycling Immersive Carousel
The ticker displays full-width event cards that auto-advance every 4.5 seconds using smooth client-side CSS opacity fade transitions. Dot navigation lets readers browse manually. The carousel pauses on hover so engaged visitors always have time to read before the next slide appears. Up to 4 featured events share the rotation — your slot is never hidden, never buried, and cycles back continuously for the entire session.
Raw API Override — Your Event Leads
GoDoDaytona's Events Hub fetches live event data from a backend engine that aggregates Ticketmaster, Eventbrite, and CitySpark. Normally, that algorithmic stream determines what ranks first. When your event is active in the Top-Billing Ticker, it is injected at the absolute front of the combined array — before the engine data is even processed — so your event leads the page regardless of what the API returns. No algorithm. No competition. Your event, first.
Across All Views & Category Filters
The ticker is rendered above the category filter UI and the pagination stack. Whether a visitor is browsing the full event feed, filtering by Music, Food & Drink, or Arts, or loading more events via the "Load More" button — your ticker remains the first visible content element throughout the entire session. No filter can hide it; no scroll can push it away before it's seen.
