creating your event: first steps/basic info page

You can make an account by following this link www.eventbrite.co.uk and clicking sign up in the top right corner.

You will then be asked to enter an email, name and password. We recommend you use an XR email address. we reccomend that you do not use a peronsal eventbrite to create events.

Once you have made your account, you will be able to create an event: click the button ‘Create an event’ that is now on Eventbrite’s top bar.

If this is the first time you made an event, it will ask you several questions about how you will use the website. This will help set up the tools that Eventbrite has.

you will be then taken to this page, where you can click the orange ‘create event’ button that is now in the middle of the screen and the top bar.

Editing the event - Basic info page

you will then land on this basic info page. This is a scrolable page, scroll down to see the three main sections. Which are Basic info, Location, Date and Time.

You will then need to add an ‘event title’.

You then need to add who the organiser’s name is. This could be your Local or regional/national/commmunity group name, such as The Midlands. Don’t put your name down for security reasons!

You will then need to decide what type of event it is in the drop box, in our picture example, we used rally.

You then should add some tags, this helps people find the event when they are searching on eventbrite, for example, Extinctionrebellion, XR, Extinction_rebellion. You can choose up to 10 tags.

Location

You will then need to add the addresses/location of your event. If your event is online you can select online as an option. If you do not know the address yet or it is still to be agreed click ‘to be announced’, as you can always edit this later.

date and time

You then need to when the event is, and if it is a reccuring event. You can also choose if you display and start and end time when it is a live published event.

SAVE AND CONTINUE

Once you have filled in the above detials, click save and contuine to save your work. This does not publish the event. It just saves it.

You will then be sent to the main page to manage your event. With 4 main sections. Basic Info, Detials, Tickets, Publish. These sections can be found on the left sidebar.
