Facebook events are a way for members to let friends know about upcoming events in their community and to organize social gatherings.
To create a Facebook event, just go straight to www.facebook.com/events, where you’ll be able to see all types of events you might be interested in attending. To create yours, click on Create.
You are able to create two types of events, Private Events, which are visible only to people invited, and Public Events, which are visible to anyone on or off Facebook.
In order to advertise your Event by using a Facebook Ads Campaign, you’ll need to pick the Public Event option.
You’ll then be able to pick a host. Which can be yourself or a Facebook Page previously created.
You’ll be advised to add the Event Photo. For best results, use a 1920 X 1080- pixel image (16:9 aspect ratio)
For the Event Name, Facebook will advise you to be short and clear. Make the name easy to read by using standard capitalization and common Characters.
If you have a physical place for the Event, here is where you should put that. As you type, options will appear.
You’ll also be able to set the Date and Time for the event to start, as well as the End Time if needed.
You can also add a description of the event, which should also be easy to read by using standard capitalization and common Characters.
You can add tags to your event, so it can be more easily recommended to people. Just type the main topic of the event, and pick the options shown by Facebook.
If you are selling tickets for people to get into the event, you can place the Ticket URL right here, so people can buy them. You can add multiple friends or pages as an admin, like artists, and sponsors, so they can all spread the word.
You also have the option that only hosts can post on the event wall, or that all posts must be approved by an admin.
Finally, next to the Create button, you’ll see the Save Draft and Schedule options.
You can just click on Create, and the event will be published.
Inside you can do a lot of awesome things in order to have a very successful event.
You’ll be able to write posts, add photos or videos, and create a poll.
There are a lot of ways to advertise the event. You can boost your event, invite people and share the event, and of course, you can advertise it with Facebook Ads.
