Private Events

Private events allow you to control who can access and purchase tickets for your event. Depending on your requirements, you can choose between Invitation Only and Private event visibility.


Invitation Only

Invitation Only events can only be booked through a unique invitation link. Each link can be used for one booking, making it ideal for events where each guest receives a personal invitation. Anyone without a valid link will see that the event is invitation only.

This option is suitable for:

  • Corporate events
  • VIP functions
  • Member-only events
  • Exclusive gatherings

To send invitations, go to Manage events, open the Event Options menu for your event and select "Email Invites" (or "SMS Invites").

If you decide to open your event to a wider audience later, you can change the event status at any time.


Private

Private events do not appear in public searches or listings. Customers can only access the event using the direct event link.

Unlike Invitation Only events, the same link can be shared and used multiple times, making it ideal for private groups, clubs, schools, or organisations.


Managing Your Private Event

Whether you choose Invitation Only or Private, you can manage your event just like any other event by:

  • Creating ticket types
  • Setting prices
  • Managing capacities
  • Configuring seating (where available)
  • Monitoring ticket sales and attendance

Private events provide a simple and flexible way to manage exclusive events while controlling who can access your tickets.
