# Venue: Users

By associating venues with [users](/v1/docs/users) you can prevent sessions that take place in venues that are not located near the user's location from displaying. For example, users in Chicago will likely be interested in sessions that take place in venues in or around Chicago. These users will likely not want to see sessions that take place in San Diego or London venues.

You can associate venues with users from the Users accordion of the [Add](/v1/docs/adding-a-venue)/[Edit Venue](/v1/docs/editing-a-venue) workscreen.

1. From the **Default Visibility** setting, select whether the venue will be visible to users on the learner interface by default:

- Yes - The venue will be visible on the Learner Dashboard by default.
- No - The venue will not be visible on the Learner Dashboard by default.

If the venue is assigned to the user, the user will be able to [change the visibility of the venue on the learner interface](/v1/docs/learner-interface-changing-course-locations-displayed).
