Create your first event

An event is the page guests book from: a workshop, a class, a show or any session you sell tickets for. Setting one up takes four short steps:

  1. Create the event (this page).
  2. Add a venue: where it happens.
  3. Add ticket packages: what guests can buy.
  4. Add dates and times: when it happens.

In your dashboard, go to Products, or select Set up next to step 3 of the Getting started checklist. Under Type of Business, choose Events and Workshops, then select Next.
