Hold dates for shows at your venue

Venue bookers and promoters with their own rooms juggle first, second and third holds on the same Saturday for months before a show is agreed. Event Operations keeps every hold on one calendar in queue order, so your team always knows who has the date and who is waiting.

Hold a date on your rooms and stages for an artist, promoter or client, see every hold in queue order on one calendar, challenge the first hold when you need the date, and confirm the date once the event is agreed.

Ennen aloitusta

  • You need an owner, admin or producer role on the brand to place and change holds. Every other role on the brand can look at the calendar and the holds.
  • Event Operations comes with Event Management. If Event Operations is not in your brand menu, ask your Ticket Fairy contact to switch it on.
  1. Open Event Operations

    In the sidebar, select your brand, then select Event Operations. The page opens on Calendar, with your events, every hold and each open offer on the day it covers.

    Huomautus: Each hold shows its place in the queue, such as 1st hold, and a booked date shows Confirmed. Select Week, or choose one space in the list beside the month, when a busy day does not fit.

  2. Add the rooms and stages you book

    Select Spaces, then select Add a space, enter the Name and Capacity, and select Save.

    Huomautus: A hold is always on one space, so add every room, stage or area you hold dates on, such as Main Room or Terrace. A new brand's calendar says Add your first space until you do.

    Event Operations, Spaces.
  3. Select + on the day you want

    On Calendar, select + in the corner of the day. Hold a date opens with that day already chosen.

    Huomautus: With more than one space and All spaces showing, the dialog also asks for the Space. Hold a date at the top of the page opens the same dialog with no day chosen.

  4. Enter who the date is held for

    Enter the artist, promoter or client in Held for, then select Hold this date. A message tells you your place, such as Date held. This is the 2nd hold on these dates.

    Huomautus: If someone already holds any of those days on that space, your hold queues behind theirs. Nobody else is told about your hold.

  5. Add the details you have

    Optional: Select More details to hold several days, set a start and end time, add a contact, choose when the hold lapses or link one of your events.

    Huomautus: At the end of the day in Hold lapses on, the hold lapses by itself and the holds behind it move up. Leave it empty to keep the hold until you release or confirm it.

Your place in the queue

Only the 1st hold on a date can confirm it. When a hold ahead of yours is released or lapses, yours moves up a place, and the history of the hold says when and why.

  1. Open a hold that is behind another

    Select the hold on the calendar, or find it under Holds. Its panel shows the space and dates, when it lapses, the contact and every change so far.

    Huomautus: The buttons follow the hold's place: a 2nd or later hold offers Challenge the first hold, and a 1st hold offers Confirm.

    Ticket Fairy hold panel for Wet Leg, the 2nd hold on 14 November in the Main Room, with Challenge the first hold, Edit, Make an offer and Release, and its history
    A 2nd hold, opened from the calendar.
  2. Challenge the first hold

    Select Challenge the first hold, choose the time under They have, then select Send the challenge.

    • 24 hours: For a date that is close, or an offer you need to send today.
    • 48 hours: The time the dialog starts on.
    • 72 hours: Three days, for a first hold that has to check with an artist on tour.
    • 168 hours: A week, for a date that is months away.

    Huomautus: The first hold shows Challenged with its deadline, and it confirms or releases before then. Nobody is emailed, so tell the first hold's contact yourself.

    Ticket Fairy Challenge the first hold dialog, giving the first hold on 14 November 48 hours to confirm or let the date go
    Challenge the first hold.
  3. Give the date to the challenger if the deadline passes

    When the first hold does not answer in time, Needs attention at the top of Event Operations lists the missed challenge. Select the button that gives the date to the challenger, named after them, such as Give the date to Kneecap, then confirm.

    Huomautus: The lapsed first hold is released and the challenger becomes the 1st hold. The released side is not told automatically, so let them know.

  4. Confirm the date when the show is agreed

    Open the 1st hold, select Confirm, choose what happens to the other holds on those dates, then select Confirm.

    • Keep them as backups: They stay in the queue in case this booking falls through.
    • Release them: Their dates are freed now. They are not told automatically, so let them know.

    Huomautus: Under Link to an event, choose the show's event if it has one, so Fai can draft its settlement when it ends.

  5. Check the calendar

    Go back to Calendar. The day shows Confirmed beside the name, and any holds you kept stay under it in their new order.

Tai anna sen hoitua puolestasi

Fai reads your calendar and holds, places a hold, challenges or confirms the first hold and releases a hold when you ask. She shows you each change and waits for your yes before she makes it.

Kysymyksiä joita sinulla voi olla

Why can I not confirm my hold?
Only the 1st hold on a date can confirm it. If someone is ahead of you, challenge the first hold or ask them to release it. A confirmed date can only be released.
What happens when a hold lapses?
At the end of the day in Hold lapses on, the hold shows Lapsed and the holds behind it move up. Needs attention lists a hold about to lapse beforehand, so you can change the date or confirm in time.
What if the first hold confirms after I challenge them?
The date is theirs and your hold stays in the queue behind them. If they release instead, the holds behind move up and yours becomes the 1st hold.
Does Fai give the date away on her own?
No. Fai checks every hour and lists what needs a decision. Where a hold is linked to an event, she also suggests giving the date to the challenger in that event's suggestions, and nothing changes until someone approves it.
What happens if two of us change the same hold at once?
The second change does not overwrite the first. The dashboard loads your teammate's version and asks you to check it and try again.
Can I remove a space?
Yes, once it has no current holds. Release or confirm its holds first, and the past holds and offers on it keep their details.
