Still deciding how to share your event, whether to keep it public or use an invite list? This article walks through your options for making your event go live.

The first step to sharing your event and receiving registrations is to publish it, which gives your invitees access to the registration form. For a step-by-step guide, see How do I publish my event?

Using an invite list automatically makes your event invite-only, so only the people on your list can register. If you choose this option, there are several ways to share the event.

Before choosing this option, make sure every invitee on your list has an email address assigned. Then use the Email Builder Overview to create a personalized, fully branded invitation.

Tips:

Invite-only events can also be shared with the event QR code or URL, both covered below.

If you leave your event status as Public, your event form is accessible to anyone with your event URL.

You can share your event URL however you like. For details, see Where do I find my event URL?

Upgraded users can download QR codes for paper invitations or online sharing from the Publish & Invite section. For step-by-step instructions, see How to download a QR code for your event. You can also review our tips for using QR codes on paper invites.

If you imported an invite list but also want people who aren't on it to register, you can still use all of the sharing options above.

Tips:

Note: The "Additional guests" restriction from the invite list no longer applies to invitees, so they'll be able to bring as many +guests as they wish.
