Run an event

Create a webinar, workshop or meetup with RSVPs, reminders, a live stream link and a replay.

Create the event in Events, publish it, and share its link; Facet collects RSVPs and emails reminders to attendees.

  1. Open Events and click New event.
  2. Enter the Title, Start date, Start time, End date and End time. Times use your computer's timezone; pick another under Advanced in Display timezone.
  3. Under Format and location, choose the Event type and add a Location name or Location URL.
  4. Under Access and price, choose Access and Visibility. Set Capacity (0 = unlimited). For a paid event, set the Price.
  5. Under Live stream & replay, add the Live stream URL and, after the event, the replay.
  6. Click Publish event, or Save draft to finish later.
  7. Use Copy link to share it. The RSVPs count and the CSV export show who's coming.

When an event is full, new RSVPs join a waitlist and move up automatically when a seat frees. Confirmed attendees get a reminder email a day before and an hour before the start.

If this didn't work

  • The link doesn't open for visitors. The event is still a draft, or its Visibility isn't Public. Publish it, or set it to Public.
  • People can't buy a paid event. Check that a Price is set and that Stripe is connected in Stripe Connect.

Cancel event keeps the event page online with a cancellation notice and keeps its RSVPs so you can contact people; new RSVPs are refused. Reinstate undoes it.
