Events Widgets

Gather events from all across your organisation into a central event list that offers flexible filtering options by type, brand, and date. With our Event List and Event Calendar widgets, you can choose from various display options including a scrollable month-by-month calendar, a comprehensive list, or a filtered list by event type, date, brand, and more.


If you host a weekly club night with its own webpage, use the Event Brand Tickets widget to feature tickets for the upcoming club night. Alternatively, if you're running a standalone event like Grad Ball or a Sports Ball with a dedicated webpage, you can display event tickets using either the Event Tickets widget or the Event Tickets Dropdown widget, presenting them conveniently as a list or dropdown menu.


Additionally, you can highlight Featured Events, and use the Event List widget to exclusively showcase these events on specific pages, providing an alternative to the full calendar or list. For further information, see Featured Events.
