"Due to high demand,..."

Due to high demand, advanced payment is needed.

In regards to this sentence, could I say 'the seminar is in high demand'? It sounds quite awkward to me but I don't know how to say it the right way. I want to say that the seminar is very competitive.

Thank you.

Best wishes,

very competitive doesn't mean in high demand , even though they correlate Due to high demand, advance d payment is needed. advance I'd say: Due to high demand, an advance payment is required/necessary/needed.

Thank you for your reply, Marius Hancu.

If at the bottom of a brochure advertising a seminar read 'Due to high demand, an advance payment is needed', how would you describe the seminar? Is it natural to say 'the seminar is in high demand'?

Thank you again.
