One great feature of Registration is the ability to host concurrent event start times.
🎭 Noteworthy: It is not possible to have concurrent start times in a standard event build. Use concurrent event times for camps or events that start at the same time, but are broken down into different groups. In the example below, summer camp starts at the same time for two age ranges.
In the event registration created below, the May 14th, 2023, 9:00PM event is added twice.
In the optional ticketing message box on the show details page, the appropriate age ranges are added so the registrants would pick the correct session on the checkout page.
This way registrants will pick the correct camp session for their appropriate agegroup.
