You can add a venue to any event you’ve created—as long as you have the right permissions. This tutorial walks you through how to search for an existing venue or create a new one from scratch, and how to link it to your event.
📘 Step-by-Step: Add or Create a Venue
Open your event
From the Dashboard, select your event.
Click “Add to event” or the “+” button
Choose Venue from the list of available sections.
Enter a title (optional)
The default title is Venue, but you can change it to something more specific (e.g., Main Venue, Festival Grounds).
Search for an existing venue
Start typing the venue name into the search bar.
If we have it in our database, click Choose this venue of the desired venue.
Next, If there are multiple stages, you can select one or leave it blank.
Click Link venue to event to finish.
Create a new venue (if it’s not in our database yet)
After your search without result (or scroll to end of page if suggestions aren't correct)
Click + Create new venue.
Fill out all required fields:
Title (Name*) and a google search will run in the background, giving you best possible options
Address line 1* (adjustable)
City*, adjustable if preferred.
Zip/Postal code* (adjustable)
Country* (adjustable)
Other fields are optional but might be helpful for your team.
Refine the address
After entering the address, click Refine address on the map if you made any manual adjustments to the required fields, to place the venue on the map.
Assign band access (if applicable)
If you manage multiple bands, you can choose which bands can access this venue.
Add venue editors
Assign people with the right permissions to help manage this venue.
Suggest the venue for the public database (optional)
Check the box if you think this venue could benefit other bands on the platform.
Our team will review and may approve it for public use.
Save and use the venue
Click Use this venue.
You’ll be redirected to link it to your event.
Note that the co-editors have the same permissions as you and can delete the venue accordingly.
Even if you later delete a venue from My Venues, it will still remain linked to any events where it was already added.
Venues you create, remain yours only and will not pop-up in the public initial search for the community without your request to make it public.
