When you click Add event in your organizer dashboard and choose Copy an event, you can start a new event using an existing one as a template. There are two distinct flows — Copy and Renew — and choosing the right one matters because they behave differently.

Copy an event

Creates an independent new event with no historical link to the original. Use this for a genuinely separate new event that happens to share a similar setup.

Renew an event

Creates the next annual or periodic edition of the same event. Historical reporting data, marketplace performance, and participant reviews carry over. Use this for recurring events like a yearly race.

Copying an event

Use Copy when you are setting up a brand new event — one that is separate from the original and should not inherit its history.
1

Open the copy flow

From your dashboard, click Add eventCopy an eventContinue.You can also copy from the event card’s menu (the icon) → Make a copy.
2

Select an event to copy from

Choose any event from your account — past or upcoming — to use as the template. All your events are available here.
3

Set the new event name and start date

  • New event name — the title of the new event (required).
  • New start date — must be a date in the future (required).
4

Confirm

Review the warning about what is and isn’t carried over, then click Confirm.What is copied:
  • Event listing content (descriptions, images, FAQ)
  • Tickets and their configurations
  • Registration forms and booking form fields
What is not copied:
  • Reporting and registration data
  • Historic startlist entries
  • Event page reviews
  • Ticket capacities, waitlists, and price changes
  • Transactional emails
  • Discount codes
  • Credits
  • Participant settings (withdrawals, deferrals)
Your new event is created as unlisted — not visible to the public. Review and update the setup, then contact your account manager when you’re ready to go live.
A copied event is not historically linked to the original. Registration numbers, reviews, and performance data start fresh. If you want to carry that history over, use Renew instead.

Renewing an event

Use Renew when you are preparing the next edition of an ongoing event — for example, next year’s race. The renewed event carries forward your historical marketplace performance, reporting, and participant reviews, which helps with discoverability and year-over-year tracking.

From your dashboard, click Add eventCopy an eventContinue, then select Renew in the following modal.You can also open this directly from the event card’s menu if that option is available.

  • Next event name — the title of the new edition (required).
  • New start date — must be a date in the future (required).
4

Confirm

Review the callout explaining what will and won’t carry over, then click Renew.What is carried over:
  • Existing event setup and listing content
  • Historic reporting data
  • Participant reviews
What is not carried over:
  • Limited capacities
  • Discount codes
  • Credits
  • Participant settings (withdrawals, deferrals)
  • Ticket price changes
Your renewed event is created as unlisted. Make any edits you need — updated dates, new pricing, refreshed content — then contact your account manager to publish it.
A renewed event is linked historically to its predecessor, so your marketplace performance and reviews transfer to the new edition. If you want a completely clean break, use Copy instead.
