Did You Know- Event Series

Did you know you can instantly create one recurring event across multiple dates and times?

If you hold events that occur daily, weekly, or even monthly, you’re probably also familiar with the inconvenience of creating a new, identical event for each individual day. Not only is it time consuming, it can lead to clunky backend setups and disjointed data, making ongoing tasks like financial reporting and managing ticket inventories more difficult. With our system’s event series functionality, you can create a single event for multiple dates and times, making it easier for your customers to view all available time slots, and for you to make bulk event updates. Plus, with our Series Dashboard, you’ll get detailed information on ticket sales, inventory levels, and customer behavior for all dates and times at a glance.

To set up an event series, log in to the ShowClix Admin and go to the Events tab, then click “Create Event.” Select the Event Series option to begin setting up your event. This process is similar to the single event creation process except for the additional fifth step, where you’ll be asked to build out your schedule. From there, you can choose how often you want your schedule to occur (hourly, daily, weekly, or monthly) and on which days. For example, if your museum offers daily tours every hour, you may set your event to start recurring at 10:00 AM, end at 7:00 PM, repeating every hour. Once you’ve customized your schedule, simply click “Save Schedule,” and watch your event populate automatically!
