Editing Your Event
A quick guide to every editable section of your event, with links to detailed guides where available
Once your event is set up, you can update almost every part of it at any time from the Edit Event tab.
NOTE: If your event is still Live but its original date/time has already passed, changing the date, time, or venue requires assistance from our support team — contact support@stickytickets.com.au.
How to get started
- Log in to your Sticky Tickets account and go to My Events.
- Select the event you want to update.
- Go to the Edit Event tab.
- Select the edit icon on the section you want to change.
- Select Save Changes after editing each section.
Name
Update your event's name at any time. Select Save Changes to confirm.
Event Date
Update your event's Start Date, Start Time, and Timezone. Changing the date after ticket sales have started doesn't affect when ticket sales began.
NOTE: Changes in the date or time of your event will send notifications to all existing ticket purchasers. Click here to view an example of the email notification.
Want to customise how your event's date and time are labelled (e.g. "Doors Open" instead of "Start Time")? See: How to customise your event date and time labels
Event Location
Update your Venue Name and Venue Address (via Change Address), toggle Show Map, and add or update Special Instructions — these also appear on order confirmations and e-tickets.
NOTE: Changes in event's location will send notifications to all existing ticket purchasers.
Organiser Details
Update the contact details shown to ticket purchasers: Name, Organisation Name, Phone Number (optional), and Email Address (required — used for enquiries and confirmations).
Refund Policy
You can update your refund policy at any time, even after tickets have been sold. Changes only apply going forward — anyone who already purchased a ticket keeps the refund policy that applied when they booked.
For the full rules on Secure My Refund locking and toggling, see: Turn off secure my refund for ticket purchases
Description
Edit your event's full description and formatting. You can also upload images directly into the description text.
- Image Gallery (up to 3 images) sets your event's thumbnail — see: How to add or change your event's thumbnail image.
- For inline images and video within your description text, see: How to add images and video to your event description
Tickets
Manage event capacity, booking fee settings, e-ticket delivery, ticket holder details, waitlist, and invoice payment options.
- See our guide on: How to add and configure tickets for your event.
- See our guide on: Setting whether ticket prices include the booking fee
- See our guide on: How to enable and manage a waitlist for sold-out events
For multi-session events, you can apply ticket setting changes per session or across all sessions using the checkbox provided.
Promotional Codes

For multi-session events, you can apply promo code changes per session or across all sessions using the checkbox provided.
Privacy
Choose whether your event is Public (promoted by Sticky Tickets and discoverable via search) or Private (accessible only via a direct URL you share).
- Search Categories — only available for Public events. Select one or more categories to help ticket purchasers find your event when browsing. This field doesn't control public/private status itself — it only appears once your event is set to Public.
- Attendees Visible — shows a guest list at the bottom of your event page. Purchasers can still choose to appear as anonymous.
- Allow Sharing — lets attendees share your event via Facebook or send-to-a-friend. Available for both Public and Private events.
