The Copy Event feature lets you duplicate an existing event and use it as the starting point for a new one. All settings from the original event are carried across — you just update the details that have changed (such as the date) before going live.
You can copy an event in any status: Pending, Live, Completed, or Cancelled.
How to Copy an Event
Step 1 — Find the event you want to copy
- Log in and go to My Events.
- Use the Status filter or search bar to find the event you want to duplicate.
- In the ACTIONS column next to the event, click copy.
Step 2 — Review the settings being copied
The Copy Event page opens, showing:
- Your Event Name — pre-filled with the original event name. Update this to the new event's name.
- Event Settings — a read-only summary of all settings being carried over from the original: Location, Organiser, Refund Policy, Description, Ticketing (including ticket types, pricing, and capacity), Privacy, and Split Payments.
Review carefully: All settings shown here will be copied exactly as they are. Changes can be made after creating the copy — but it's worth checking the summary now to confirm the settings are correct as a starting point.
Step 3 — Create the copy
Click Create A Copy at the bottom of the page.
The copy is created as a Pending event. You'll be taken to the Edit Event page where you can make any final changes before going live.
Step 4 — Update the new event before going live
Important: The copy includes the original event's date and time. Before publishing, make sure to update:
- Event date and time — the most critical update
- Event name (if you didn't update it in Step 2)
- Any other details that differ from the original — description, ticket prices, capacity, etc.
Once your updates are complete, go live as normal. See: How to publish your event and go live.

Most Common Scenarios and Questions
I can't find the copy link next to my event.
