You can easily renew an event in order to prepare the next ‘edition’ of your event, for example:

  • Set up next year’s event (eg. update your 2024 Marathon to the 2025 Marathon)

  • Set up the next edition of your recurring series (eg. Summer Triathlon to the Fall Triathlon)

By renewing an event, you’ll benefit from:

  • Significantly reducing the setup time for your future event - no need to start from scratch

  • Having historical participant and event data in context, to help you track your performance gains over time

  • Continuity for your marketplace listing and participant experience, eg. showing reviews from your past events

To help you take advantage of your historic marketplace performance, and to reduce the setup time for your next event, we’ll carry over most of your existing event setup, historic reporting data, and participant reviews. You’ll be able to edit the renewed event in ‘Unlisted’ mode before launching it on the Marketplace.


Which events can be renewed?

You can renew any event that has ended (ie. the Start Date has passed), which has a ‘Past’ event status.

ℹ️ We’re working on the ability to start renewing an event before the start date has passed, so that you can prepare your next event to be launched ahead of time.

How to renew a past event

From your Events page, select ‘Past’ from the dropdown:

Tap the ‘Renew’ button:

You’ll be guided through the renewal step and have the option to set a new start date and event name:

Edit and launch your renewed event

Your renewed event will now be updated in the Events list with Unlisted status. Note that this does not launch your event on the Marketplace immediately.

You can now find your event listed under the Upcoming events list on the Event page. You can select Edit event to review your new event, update any details and prepare it for launch:

  • Discount codes

⚠️ Only codes that have been applied to ‘All events’ will be carried over. If you had set up a discount code to be event, ticket or race-specific (eg. Marathon 2024), and you would like to continue using it on your renewed event, you’ll need to update the Discount Code settings to select your event. You can do this under Marketing > Discount Codes . You may need to adjust any expiry dates you have previously added.

  • Credits

⚠️ Only credits that have been applied to ‘All events’ will be carried over. If you had set up a credit to be event, ticket or race-specific (eg. Marathon 2024), and you would like to continue using it on your renewed event, you’ll need to update the Credit settings to select your event and adjust the date/time. You can do this under Marketing > Credits.
