Although WP Event Manager Zoom works standalone, it also pairs flawlessly with the original plugin and allows you to differentiate virtual events from non-virtual events.

The Zoom extension enhances the WP Event Manager plugin by automatically generating all necessary information about an event submission onto a single event page. You can organize and display the Zoom meeting details either in the Block view or in a sidebar.
