Event Location Settings
Location settings in Hi.Events control where your event takes place — a physical venue or online. 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 Add event details step in the setup checklist on the event dashboard stays open until your event has a description and a location.
Physical Venue
For in-person events, use the location picker to set your venue:
- Search — start typing in the Location field to search your saved locations or find an address. Address suggestions appear once you’ve typed three characters, and selecting one fills in the full address automatically.
- Manual entry — click Enter address manually and fill in the details yourself: venue name, address lines, city, state or region, ZIP or postal code, and country. Then click Use this address.
Click Save when you’re done.
Saved Locations
Venues are saved to your organizer’s Locations library (Locations under Library in the organizer 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 from the Locations page: Add Location, or use a location’s menu to Edit location or Delete location. When picking a venue, the selected venue is labeled Saved location or New location.
Maps Link
If you leave Custom Maps URL blank, Hi.Events uses your address to generate a Google Maps link. If you want to use a different maps URL (e.g. a specific pin, Apple Maps, or a custom directions page), enter it in that field. The field is only shown for in-person events.
Online Events
Toggle This is an online event to switch to an online event — the venue picker and Custom Maps URL 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. Edit a date from the Occurrence Schedule page and choose Same as event, Different location or Online under Location.
