Setting up an event

# Create a reusable event template

Share your ticket tiers and allocations as a template without publishing your prices. Published templates credit your brand.

For:  Sharing an event setup as a reusable template

Takes:  8 minutes

- [Pick the event to share](#step-1)
- [Review the copied ticket tiers](#step-2)
- [Set the anchor tier](#step-3)
- [Enter the template details](#step-4)
- [Submit it and wait for the review](#step-5)

## What you need before you start

- You're an owner or an admin on this brand. Sharing puts your brand's name on a public page, so if you can't find **Share an event**, ask an owner or an admin to do this part.
- Check that the ticket names, prices and allocations reflect what you want to share.

1. ## Pick the event to share

   Open Event templates on your brand and choose Share an event. Pick the event whose ticketing you would recommend to somebody running the same kind of thing.

   An event that sold well makes the most useful template, because how you priced and released those tickets is what somebody starting from yours is looking for.

2. ## Review the copied ticket tiers

   The template copies the ticket tiers, their relative prices and allocations from the event. Each tier then shows as a share of the anchor rather than as an amount.

   If a tier looks wrong here it is because it looks that way on the event. Fix it there and share again, rather than editing a copy that no longer matches what you ran.

3. ## Set the anchor tier

   The anchor is the one ticket tier your template asks about. The template initially uses the paid tier with the largest allocation. Change it if a different tier is what you would call a standard ticket.

   Changing the anchor rescales every share around the new one, so each tier keeps the same relative price. Only the question your template asks them changes. Pick a paid ticket type that buyers would recognise as the standard option.
4. ## Enter the template details

   Enter a name that describes the kind of event in **Template name**, such as Two stage weekender. Explain the setup in one or two plain sentences in **What is it for?**, and choose the closest **Kind of event**. You must complete the name and kind before you can create the draft. If it helps another organiser decide, enter who should use it in **Who it suits**. Use your own language if that is not English.

   Name it for the kind of event rather than for yours. A name like Summer Weekender 2026 belongs to one date, so somebody browsing cannot see what it sets up; Two stage weekender with camping tells them in one glance whether it is theirs.
5. ## Submit it and wait for the review

   Submit the draft. We read it, and publish it credited to your brand. Its status and its whole history stay on the Event templates page while you wait.

   You can withdraw it at any point, from review or from publication, and it goes back to a draft only your team can see. Draft is also the only state a template is editable in, so a turned-down one goes back there before you change it.

## Or have it done for you

Fai can copy the ticket tiers and allocations from your event, choose an anchor tier and draft the template details. She shows you the wording and asks before submitting it. You can also create the template from your event in the dashboard.

### In your dashboard, with Fai

Share my Summer Weekender as a template called "Two stage weekender", use the weekend ticket as the anchor, draft a one-line summary for a two-day outdoor event with camping, and show me the draft before submitting

## Questions you might have

Does sharing a template give away my prices?:  No. A template holds how your tickets are set up, not your amounts: one tier is the anchor, and it stores every other tier as a share of that one. Your template asks whoever uses it what that ticket costs, then prices every other tier around their answer in their own currency, so your published template does not show your prices.

What is the anchor tier?:  The one tier your template asks about, so pick the tier you would call a standard ticket. The template initially uses the paid tier with the largest allocation, which is usually right, and you can change it before you submit. Use a paid ticket type so the template has one clear starting amount for working out every other tier.

When does my template appear on the gallery?:  After we publish it. You submit a draft, we read it, and it goes up credited to your brand. Until then it is visible only to your team, so treat "submitted" as waiting rather than live.

Mine was turned down. Why?:  Open the template and read its history. Every state it has been in is there with who moved it and the reason they gave. Take it back to draft so you can edit it, fix what the reason names, then submit it.

Can I take a published template down?:  Yes. Withdraw it and it goes back to draft, so the gallery stops offering it while you work on it. Events somebody already built from it carry on unchanged: a template is a starting point, not a live link.

What does the review look for?:  That the setup is one somebody else could use. Tiers named for what they are rather than for your artist, your venue or your date; a summary that says what kind of event it suits; and no amounts anywhere.
