Event Creation Form
Event Name
Choose a clear, descriptive name. This appears on your event page, in search results, and on tickets.
Description
A rich text editor for your event details. Include what attendees can expect, the schedule, what to bring, and any FAQs. This is displayed prominently on your public event page.
Start Date and End Date
Set when the event begins and ends. Both support date and time selection. If your event is a single day, the end date is optional.
Event Cover Image
Upload a banner image for your event page. Use a high-quality, landscape-oriented image for best results.

Once you click Create Event, you land on the event dashboard. From here you can:
- Add tickets and products

- Customize your event page with the Homepage Designer
- Set up registration questions
- Publish when ready
Your event starts as a Draft and is not visible to the public until you publish it.
