Hosting an event that’s going to be on more than once in the year? Let us introduce you to the recurring event feature, which will soon become the go-to tool in your event creator’s tool kit. All it requires is a little proactive planning and a quick coffee break to complete the simple setup, then you’ll have an outstanding online event calendar to present to possible guests in no time. If you’re ready to simplify your schedule of multiple events through a user-friendly event program, then read on.
What is a recurring event or event series?
A recurring event is an event that repeats a number of times at either the same or different location, usually in a block (like a concert, or a seasonal tour), or a scheduled series of events (like community sports practice, fortnightly workshops or a class held at a different location each week). There are different forms that a recurring event can take. For example, it might be a musical theatre production that has performances on a Friday night, Saturday night, and Sunday matinee each week for a month-long season. Or maybe it’s a weekly yoga class that meets at midday on Thursdays.
The recurring event feature will auto-generate as many separate event entries as you like. While guests will have to buy tickets for each event date separately, all of the pages in your event program will link to one another so that you can mass create and edit all of your events in one click. For even smoother integration, install the online Events Calendar app that will generate a user-friendly calendar on your site displaying the available dates and times of your event.
