Dates - How do I use “Multi-date mode”?

The Multi-date mode allows event organisers to efficiently manage multiple event dates and time slots in bulk. This powerful feature, available on Advanced and Professional pricing plans, enables organisers to perform several actions across selected dates with just a few clicks, saving significant time and effort.

Key capabilities of Multi-date mode include:

1. Duplicating dates across the calendar.

2. Deleting/cancelling unwanted event dates.

3. Updating capacity limits for selected dates.

4. Editing ticket types and pricing for common tickets across multiple dates.

5. Adding new ticket types to multiple dates seamlessly.

6. Cloning existing ticket types to additional dates.

Other Notes

Please note, when carrying out these actions in bulk, there can be a slight delay when waiting for the actions to complete as the system will be updating a lot of data at the same time. Please do not refresh the page whilst this is working.
