Professional event listings are easier with Eventbrite

Eventbrite’s built-in tools make it easy to create a professional event listing that’s compelling and memorable, complete with beautiful design features, built-in payment processing, and seamless integrations.

How to create a professional event listing that gets results

Attendees value event listings that clearly communicate all relevant information prior to the event, to help set clear expectations and guidelines.

Create a compelling event story

When an event-goer discovers your event online, they should find an engaging story that inspires them to buy tickets right then and there.

Use best practices for a high-quality event listing

The best event listings showcase the five Ws (who, what, when, where, and why) of your event in a compelling way. It is also essential to highlight your event’s unique features and benefits up front.

Tips for crafting an engaging event description

The event description — combined with the event title/headline – is your unique opportunity to capture the attention of potential attendees online and compel action. Here are our suggestions to make it happen:

Tap into your attendees’ emotions — and connect on that level

This is the secret sauce to taking your professional event listing from good to great. The difference? A great one makes them feel like they can’t miss your event. An engaging event description is clear and informative but also connects with attendees on an emotional level.

Find your event’s unique tone of voice

Start with why you decided to create your event in the first place. It’s probably the same reason why someone would want to attend your event, too. You can build your narrative from here. There are several questions you might think about: how do you want people to feel when they discover your event? Which voice (playful, buttoned-up, expert) resonates best with your audience? If your event brand was a person, how would they talk?
