For venues

Create an event at your venue

Add a programme event, choose its visibility, and decide how guests can attend.

Open Events and create a new event. You can plan a venue night before you book an entertainer. Add its name, schedule and event details, then choose visibility and attendance in the event editor.

An event and a booking serve different purposes: the event describes the programme shown to guests; the booking holds the private conversation, proposals and agreement with an entertainer. A confirmed booking may create a draft event for the venue to review. You can add entertainment to an event through the event's Find talent flow.

Review the event before publishing it. Visibility can be draft, private, unlisted or public. Paid tickets require the selected seller's payment connection to be ready; free RSVPs and external ticket links follow different setup paths. See tickets and RSVPs.

For an event at another venue, choose Custom address on the Location tab and select its Google result. If the venue has an eligible public gigiii profile, the editor uses its public description, links and image choices. Otherwise, it suggests details from the place's website when available. Review the venue name, description and links; you can edit them for this event. The first suggested image is selected by default. Choose another image by clicking it; a ring and check mark identify your selection. When you save the event, only that image is saved and shown for the venue; the other suggestions are not kept. You can also remove the venue image. These editor suggestions use an eligible public venue page. On the event page, an attached approved marketplace venue or talent supplies its description, photos, website and social links independently of whether it has a public gigiii landing page. If that landing page is available, Profile appears first in the entity’s links. Private contacts and documents remain private. If suggestions cannot be loaded, the selected address still works and you can enter the details yourself.

If you connect an Event Channel under Integrations, manage that event’s channel in Settings. Channel reports appear in Analytics once the event has a channel. Events without a channel connection show no channel controls.

To reuse an upcoming or past event, open it and select Duplicate event. The copy opens as a new draft with its own ID and [copy] at the end of its title. It has no Analytics tab while it is a draft. Review its details, set a new date and time, and save before publishing. Bookings, agreements, requests, orders, attendees and sales stay with the original event. If the original had a confirmed entertainer, the copy shows their profile under Bookings. After setting the date, choose Send request to start a new booking.

For a repeating event, choose Duplicate series details to make one standalone draft from the shared series details. It has no date or repeat schedule; set a date before publishing. Choose Duplicate this date to make one standalone draft using that date's details, including any changes made just for that date. Neither choice copies other dates, bookings, RSVPs, ticket inventory or sales. A confirmed entertainer from the selected date may appear as a recommendation; Send request starts a new booking.

Guests see one series page with upcoming dates highlighted in a calendar beside the RSVP or ticket action. They can browse earlier and later months; months without series dates say so. Selecting a date refreshes the page with that date's details and admission options. A shared link can open with a particular date selected; each RSVP or ticket purchase applies to that date only. Past dates remain available through their links, and a series with no upcoming dates shows that state. The event page also shows a carousel of the host's upcoming public events below the event details. Use the dots beneath the carousel to browse its pages.

On the Basics tab, External performers lets you list acts who are not booked through gigiii. Save a new event as a draft first, then add each performer’s name and optional image, short bio and public link. Save performers saves this section separately, for the current date only. Linked gigiii performers remain unchanged. Empty performer sections are hidden on the public page. External entries do not confirm a gigiii booking or endorsement; only publish information and images you have permission to use.
