Is a customized waiting room possible for Zoom Webinars?

Hi! Has anyone found a way to make branded waiting rooms for zoom webinars? I know they're available for meetings, but they don't cross over to webinars. 

 

For example, it just says "Please wait for the host to start this webinar" on a generic pop-up instead of anything that looks cohesive with the webinar branding.

 

Thank you!

No there is no waiting room for webinar.  What you can do is use the backstage which is available with a Zoom Events license.  Then you can start the webinar and play an opening clip but chat with the speakers "backstage" till you are ready to start.
