Recurring events
If your event happens at the same place on a regular cadence — every Tuesday morning at a coffee shop, every other Saturday at a community hall — you can set up a Recurring Location and pre-create a string of dates in one go.
How to set one up
In the new-event stepper, on the Location step, mark the location as a Recurring Location. A new Schedule step appears with two tabs:
- Pick Dates — add up to 52 individual date/time entries one by one.
- Recurring Schedule — pick the days of the week, a start date, an end date, and a shared start/end time. The site generates one event per matching day in that window. (Up to 52 dates per location — if you go over, you'll need to shorten the window.)
There's no monthly cadence, and no "ends after N occurrences" or "never ends" option — you always set an explicit end date.
What gets repeated
Each date becomes a separate event with the same title, description, and location. Members RSVP per occurrence, not once for the whole series.
Changing one occurrence
Each occurrence is its own event. To change just one — different time, different details — open that event's page and click Edit. There's no "this one only" vs "all future" prompt because nothing links the dates together once they're created.
Changing several occurrences
If you need to change every date going forward, you'll need to open each one and edit it individually. Many hosts find it easier to cancel the rest and create a new Recurring Location with the updated time or place.
Cancelling one occurrence
For a single skipped date (holiday, bad weather), open that event's page and click Cancel. The other dates carry on.
Stopping a series
To stop running events at a recurring location, cancel each of the future dates one at a time. Past occurrences stay on the host's history.
