Create your first event (it's easier than you think)

Walk through the event editor from top to bottom. By the end, you'll have a page ready to share.

01Open the streamlined editor

Go to /organizer/events/create or use Create Event from the organizer sidebar. MrStubs uses one editor for both create and edit, so the structure stays familiar after your first launch.

Manual setup is the default path. If you use flyer import, it should only help prefill fields before you continue through the same editor.

02Follow the fixed section order

The editor is organized to keep you moving forward instead of making you configure everything at once. Start with the essentials, then add optional complexity only if your event really needs it.

Steps

  1. 1Event basics: enter the event name, event type, date, time, timezone, and location.
  2. 2Event page: add your description, image, and public-facing story.
  3. 3Tickets and checkout: create ticket tiers, set capacities, and tune buyer rules.
  4. 4Optional extras: add hotels, seating, team sales, or other extra modules if needed.
  5. 5Review and publish: confirm the setup and publish when you are ready.

03Choose an event type that fits the real workflow

MrStubs supports details-only pages, free events, standard ticketed events, reserved seating, and save-the-date flows. The right event type keeps the public event page and checkout experience aligned with what buyers should expect.

  • Use Details only when the page is informational and no checkout is needed.
  • Use Free event when you still want a hosted event page without paid tickets.
  • Use Ticketed event for the default paid checkout path.
  • Use Reserved seating only when your event truly needs seat or table controls.
  • Use Save the date when you want the page live before the selling details are finished.
