Creating your first event

Walk through the event builder from draft to published event page.

Create an event from your organizer dashboard in a few steps.

Start a draft

  1. Go to Organizer → Events → Create event.
  2. Choose Single or Recurring schedule.
  3. Add a title, description, cover image, and location. Choose In person, Virtual, Hybrid, or TBA. Search a place, add a custom venue if it is not on the map, or create/paste a meeting link for virtual and hybrid events. See Zoom for online events or Google Meet for online events.

Add dates and tickets

  1. Add at least one date and time (event instance).
  2. Create a ticket type (free, RSVP, or paid). Paid tickets need you to connect your Stripe account. You are the seller; Wanepass charges a 3.5% platform fee plus Stripe processing on your payout. Details: Understanding fees and payouts.
  3. Optionally add a registration form or RSVP approval rules.

Review and publish

  1. Open the Publish step and fix any blocking checklist items.
  2. Choose public or private visibility.
  3. Click Publish. Your event page goes live immediately.
