Tips for Creating an Event

We encourage you to review the following tips when creating and submitting your event.

  1. Event Name

    • Choose a clear and accurate event title.

    • Event names should be 75 characters or less for clarity and readability.

  2. Uploading event flyers

    1. Your event flyer must be in JPG, PNG, or GIF format.

    2. The maximum file size is 10MB.

    3. Recommended dimensions: 800 x 1170 pixels.

    4. Ensure the image is clear, high-quality, and not blurry.

  3. Event Date and Time

    1. If you’re unsure about your event’s end time, turn the "Show end date and time" toggle OFF to hide this information from your guests.

  4. Event Location

    1. To help maintain privacy and security of your event, the exact location will remain hidden on event details pages until a guest is confirmed. Only the City and State are shown until the guest is confirmed.

    2. If you'd like to hide the address even for Confirmed guests, you can turn the "Show full address for confirmed guests" toggle OFF.

  5. Event Description

    1. Although optional, event descriptions are recommended. Provide a clear and detailed event description with all relevant information.

    2. Ensure the description is accurate to set the right expectations for attendees.
