Events & sessions

Classes, courses, appointments, recurrence and ticket types.

On this page 5

An event is the thing people book. A session is a single dated instance of it. A yoga class every Monday is one event with many sessions.

Types of event

  • Class / course — recurring sessions people book into
  • Appointment — bookable time slots (e.g. a 1:1)
  • One-off event — a single workshop or show

Recurrence

When you add sessions you can repeat them daily, weekly, monthly or termly. Set it up once and tell it how to repeat — we generate each dated session for you. You can then edit or cancel individual sessions without touching the rest.

Ticket types

Each event can offer several ticket types, for example:

Type Use it for
Single One person, one session
Group A block of seats at once
Course / term pass Books the whole run in one go
Family / child Age or family pricing
Early-bird Cheaper before a cut-off date
Free No payment needed
Donation Pay-what-you-want

Capacity & waitlists

Set a capacity per session. When it's full, further bookings join a waitlist automatically — and when a space frees up (a cancellation or refund), the next person on the list is promoted and emailed without you lifting a finger.

Custom booking questions

Add your own questions to the booking form — allergies, injuries, emergency contact, T&Cs or a waiver to accept. Answers show on your attendee list.
