Creating an Event

Creating an event on TribeNest takes just a few minutes. You will set up the basic details, choose the event type, and optionally add a venue and cover image.

How to create an event

1. Go to Events in your dashboard sidebar.
2. Click the Create Event button.
3. Fill in the Event Title. This is what your audience will see, so make it catchy and clear.
4. Add a Description using the rich text editor. Share what attendees can expect, any special guests, or important details.
5. Upload a Cover Image. This appears on your event page and helps it stand out. Use a landscape (widescreen) image for the best results.
6. Pick the Date & Time for your event.
7. Select your Timezone so the date and time display correctly for everyone.

Choose your event type

TribeNest supports three types of events:

• Physical -- An in-person event at a specific location.
• Virtual -- An online-only event (no venue address needed).
• Hybrid -- Both in-person and online, so you can reach everyone.

When you select Physical or Hybrid, a location section will appear where you can enter the venue details.

Adding a venue (Physical and Hybrid events)

If your event has an in-person component, you will need to fill in:

1. Location Name -- the name of the venue (e.g., "The Blue Note" or "Community Park").
2. Street Address -- the street where the venue is located.
3. City -- the city of your venue.
4. Country -- select from the dropdown list.
5. Zip Code -- required if the venue is in the United States.

Optional settings

• Ticket Sale Message -- A custom message included in the confirmation email that buyers receive after purchasing a ticket. Great for sharing links, instructions, or a personal thank-you.
• Questionnaire -- Add questions that buyers need to answer when purchasing tickets. You can create text, long-text, or dropdown questions, and mark them as optional or required.
• Action Text & Action Link -- If you are selling tickets through an external platform instead of TribeNest, you can add a custom button label (like "Register Now") and a link to that external page. Leave these empty if you are using TribeNest tickets.
