Create a private event

Before you start

No ID needed. Private events go live straight away, verified or not.

Step 1: Fill in your event

Open the create form and fill it in as in Create an event: cover, name, date, category, location, description and capacity.

Step 2: Pick Private

Tap the Public button at the top right of the form and pick Private: unlisted, and only people with the link can see it and register.

Step 3: Publish

The line above the button now starts with Unlisted, link only. Tap Publish event.

Step 4: Send the link yourself

On Your event is live!, tap Copy link or share it on WhatsApp. A private event has no X or Facebook buttons, because its link should go person to person.

Step 5: No verified ID yet? Add your guests

Without a verified ID, a private event still goes live, but nobody can register through its link. The card says Private · you add the guests: tap Add guests to put people on your list and send their passes. See Add a guest.

Good to know

Once your ID is approved, anyone with the link can register for your private events.

Without a verified ID, the Guest ID check switch is hidden on a private event, since you add every guest yourself.

Making a private event public needs your ID verified. Until then the editor keeps it private and says Your changes weren't saved. The event is still private.
