Creating your first event

The quickest way to create an event is the sell-tickets wizard, which guides you through each step. You can also create events directly from the Events page for more control.

Using the wizard:

1. From your dashboard, click Get started (if you haven't converted your account yet) or navigate to Events and click New event.
2. Choose an organisation: select an existing organisation or create a new one.
3. Choose a venue: select an existing venue or create a new one.
4. Event details:
5. Enter the event title.
6. Enter a friendly link name: this is the short name used in your event URL (e.g. spring-show-2025).
7. Upload a banner image (JPG or PNG, at least 1200px wide recommended).
8. Add performances: add one or more date/time combinations. Each performance can be held at a different venue if needed.
9. Set ticket prices: add at least one price band with a name and price. You can add more price bands (e.g. Concession, Member) at this step or later.
10. Review and publish: check your details, agree to the terms, and click Publish. Your event goes live immediately.

After publishing, Time For A Show generates a public event page and a ticket sales link you can share.

Making changes after publishing:

You can edit most event details after publishing by going to Events, clicking the event, and editing inline. See the article Managing your event for full details.
