Julia EskinUpdated

Follow these steps to create your event on EventLive.


Step 1: Download the EventLive App or Sign up Online

  1. Go to https://eventlive.app.link/get to download EventLive app or Sign Up on the web

Step 2: Create an Account


Step 3: Create Your Event

  1. In My Events, tap + next to the title (or Create an Event when you have no events yet). Funeral homes see Schedule a Service.
  2. Fill in the details described below and choose Schedule event.
  3. Unlock the event to use all of EventLive's features. If you have an event credit (a prepaid event on personal accounts), it's used automatically.

Schedule your event

Everything here can be changed later in the event's settings.

Schedule your event

The Event title appears at the top of your event page and in your guests' invitations and reminders. The Event link (evt.live/…) is filled in from the title, and you can edit it: letters, numbers, dashes and underscores, not already taken. A check mark shows when it's available. Choose it before you send invitations: if you change it later, links you've already shared stop working.

Event type

Personal accounts choose the kind of event: wedding, funeral, birthday, school, sport or other. Guests don't see it; it only tailors what EventLive shows you, like reviews from similar events.

Date, time and time zone

Choose when the event starts. The time zone comes from your device; choose Change to pick another. You can go live from one hour before the scheduled time, and your guests' reminder emails are timed from it.

Multi-day events

Choose Make it a multi-day event to keep one link for up to 7 consecutive days. Each day uses one event credit. See multi-day events.

Raise donations for a nonprofit

Business accounts can turn on Raise donations for a nonprofit. After you choose Schedule event, you pick the nonprofit, and viewers can then donate on your event page. Donations go through Pledge, which pays the nonprofit and emails each donor a tax receipt. See fundraisers and donations.


Important Tips

  • You can create your event for any date in the future. You will only be able to start streaming one hour before your scheduled event time. You can share the link to your event right after you schedule and pay for it.
  • If you have trouble creating an event, make sure you are registered and logged in

Important Notes

  • You must register for an account before you can create an event
  • Make sure you are using the official EventLive app or website
