Before you start

  • Decide when registration opens and closes.
Attendance event list with dates, venue, capacity, registrations and publication status.
Events combine the public schedule with capacity and registration availability.

Create the event

Enter a clear name, venue, start and end times. Add capacity when attendance must be limited.

Control publication

Keep the event as a draft while preparing sessions and pass types. Publish it only when its public information and registration dates are ready.

Review dates

Registration opening and closing must fit the operational plan. The event timezone comes from Attendance settings.

Step by step

  1. Open Events and choose New event.
  2. Enter name, venue, description and schedule.
  3. Set capacity, price and registration dates.
  4. Enable waitlist and public registration when applicable.
  5. Keep as draft until sessions and pass types are ready, then publish.

Final check

  • End follows start and registration closes on time.
  • Capacity matches the real venue.
  • The public link shows complete information.
Tip: Publish only after testing the complete registration and email journey.
