🎓 Recap of Changing Your Show Venue Before and After Publishing
To change the venue of your show in On The Stage, go to the Show Details section and select the show you want to update. If the show has not been published yet, you can easily change the venue in the Details section. After publishing, you can still change the venue, but you’ll need to add the venue (if it is new) in the Venue Settings from you main dashboard. Make sure to notify your attendees. Once the change is made, be sure to review your event page and ticket links to ensure everything reflects the updated venue information.
