Why do I need to update my event?

1. As interest in your event grows you will need to update the available spaces. This is a manual, rather than an automated process, as not all registered interests will ultimately commit to your event.

2. You will also need to update the event status. To begin with your event will be 'Open'. When your event is full you can set the status to 'Closed' which removes the 'Registration' links from your Event page as does 'Complete'or 'Cancelled'. Later you can 'Archive' your Event which removes it from the Event Listing altogether.

3. You can change any Event details at any time.

What does updating my event achieve?

1. It ensures that message you want to communicate about your event is up to date.

2. Remember anyone can see your event details, not just the members. Only members can register an interest.
