Event Location Settings
The location settings control where your event takes place — whether it is a physical venue or an online event. This information appears on your public event page.
How to Get There
- Open your event
- Go to Event Settings
- Open the Location section
Location isn’t set during event creation — you add it here afterward (the setup checklist on the event dashboard will remind you).
Physical Venue
For in-person events, use the location picker to set your venue:
- Search — start typing to search your saved locations and real-world venues and addresses. Selecting a suggestion fills in the full address automatically.
- Manual entry — enter the details yourself: venue name, address lines, city, state/region, ZIP/postal code, and country.
Saved Locations
Venues are saved to your organizer’s Locations library (Organizer → Locations in the sidebar), so you can reuse them across events. Any new venue you set on an event is added to the library when you save — whether you picked it from the autocomplete or typed it in with Enter address manually. You can manage the library — add, edit, or delete venues — from the Locations page. When picking a venue, saved locations are labeled so you can tell them apart from new ones.
Maps Link
Hi.Events automatically generates a maps link from your address. If you want to use a different maps URL (e.g. a specific pin, Apple Maps, or a custom directions page), enter it in the Custom Maps URL field.
Online Events
Toggle This is an online event to switch to an online event — the venue fields are replaced with a connection details editor. See the Online Events article for details.
Recurring Events
For recurring events, the event location is the default for every date, and individual dates can override it — a specific session can use a different venue or be online. Set overrides from the Occurrence Schedule page when editing a date.
