How The Event Grid Works for Organizers
Everything you need to host, sell, and manage your events — all in one place.

Whether you're organizing a local community meetup, a ticketed concert, or a large-scale festival, The Event Grid gives you the tools to get your event in front of the right audience, sell tickets effortlessly, and manage everything from one dashboard. Here's exactly how it works.
Step 1: Create Your Organizer Account
Getting started takes just a few minutes. Sign up at theeventgrid.com or download the app, register as an organizer, and complete your profile. You'll be asked to provide basic details about yourself or your organization — and for paid events, you'll connect your Stripe account so payouts go directly to you.
Step 2: Build Your Event Listing
Once your account is set up, creating an event is straightforward. Fill in the essentials:
• Event name, description, and category
• Date, time, and venue or virtual link
• Ticket types and pricing — free, paid, tiered, or early bird
• Event banner image and any promotional details
Your listing goes live instantly and is immediately discoverable by users browsing events by location and category.
Step 3: Sell Tickets and Get Paid
When an attendee purchases a ticket, payment is processed securely through Stripe. You don't need to handle card data or chase payments — it's all automated. Proceeds from ticket sales are paid out directly to your connected bank account on a rolling basis, minus EventGrid's small platform fee which is always shown transparently at setup.
Step 4: Manage Attendees and Check-In
Your organizer dashboard gives you a real-time view of ticket sales, attendee counts, and revenue. On event day, use the EventGrid mobile app to scan attendee QR codes for fast, contactless check-in — no printed lists or third-party tools needed.
Step 5: Promote and Grow
Every event published on EventGrid is featured in our discovery feed, browseable by city and category, and eligible for our daily featured picks. Share your event link directly to social media or embed it on your own website to drive traffic. As your events build a track record, your organizer profile grows in visibility across the platform.
