Create a Recurring Event Series

Create repeated event dates and manage applications, occurrences, participant availability, absences, and credits from the series workspace.

All articles

Recurring series are for repeated markets, fairs, tours, venue programmes, or regular event dates. The series creates individual event occurrences while giving organisers a combined view of applications, participant roster, attendance, payment carry, credits, and cancelled dates.

What you can configure

  • Weekly or monthly recurrence patterns, including selected weekdays, intervals, day-of-month, or ordinal weekday patterns.
  • An end date or a fixed number of occurrences, subject to the limit shown in setup.
  • Participant types, pricing profiles, discount rules, application questions, terms, branding, and bank transfer or PayPal payment methods.
  • Selected-date applications so applicants can choose the dates they want to attend.
  • Occurrence cancellation when one date in the series should not run.

05

Create the series

Save as draft or create active series depending on your readiness.

Manage the series

  • Use the occurrence timeline to open individual event dates.
  • Use the approval queue to approve recurring applicants.
  • Use the participant roster to review attendance, approve applicants, open portals, or remove participants from future dates.
  • Use credits and absence controls where a participant cannot attend a scheduled occurrence.

Stripe Connect card payments are not offered in recurring series setup. Use the payment methods available in the series setup flow.
