Create your first event

Before you pay anything

An event is a draft until you take it live, and a draft costs nothing. Build the whole thing first — its page, its form, its tickets — and choose a package only when it is ready.

Steps

1. 1In the organiser console, open Events and choose New event. Give it a name, dates, a venue and whether it is a trade (B2B) or consumer (B2C) event — that choice sets sensible registration fields for you.
2. 2Open Event page to add the banner, logo, description and the sections your landing page shows.
3. 3Open Registration to shape the form: which fields are asked, which are required, and the consent visitors give.
4. 4Add tickets. Free tickets are in every package; paid tickets need Full.
5. 5In Settings → Package, choose Essential, Standard or Full. The console suggests one from what you have already built.
6. 6Pay the setup invoice by card or bank transfer. Once it is paid, set the event live.
