Event Settings

After creating the event, you can configure it in detail in the Event Settings section. Here you’ll find several key tabs:

Event Details

Here you can change the name, category, description, and start/end dates. You’ll also find currency and timezone settings — the currency is locked after event creation, so make sure you’ve selected the right one.

Location

In this section, enter the venue address: venue name, street address, city, postal code, and country. You can also add a Google Maps link. If your event is online, toggle This is an online event — the address fields will be replaced with an editor where you can provide connection details.

Checkout and Event Page

In the Checkout tab, you can customize the ticket purchase process settings. The Homepage section lets you edit the look of your event page visible to attendees.

SEO and Other Settings

The SEO section helps optimize your event for search engines. You’ll also find tabs for email and notification settings, per-event payment options, and miscellaneous settings.
