Run a community event

Owners and admins create events. Members see them under Events and register.

Create an event

1. Switch to your community, open Events in the menu and choose Create event.
2. Type the Event name and set Start and End. The time zone is next to them.
3. Under Where, choose In person, Online or Both. For in person, add the venue. Online events get a StartupCorners video call set up for you, or you can paste your own meeting link.
4. Optionally add a description (Write with AI drafts one), a cover image and a Theme.
5. Optionally set Capacity (when it is full, new guests join a waitlist), when Registration closes, Who can register, Tags and Speakers. Online events also have a Waiting room, where you let each guest into the call.
6. Pick Public or Private.
7. Choose Create event, or Save as draft to finish it later.

Before and during the event

Your events are under Upcoming and Past. Each one has:

• Manage: opens the event page.
• Join call: opens the video call of an online event until it ends.
• Guest list: shows who registered.
• On your website: a card with Register for your own site, until the event starts. See Put your community, program or event on your website.
• Edit event (the pencil) and Cancel event (the cross), while it can still change.
