# Creating a Regular Event

> Create a Regular Event and invite guests to an intimate or private gathering.

A **Regular Event** in Fast Party gives you full control of the guest list. You control the guest list — invited guests receive a personal link and RSVP directly. No registration queue, no approval flow.

## Creating an event

Click **New Event** from your dashboard and choose **Regular Event** as the event type. Fill in the required fields to get started — you can always edit it later.

**Event Image**

Use an image that suits your event from a gallery of templates available in the platform, or upload your own to better describe your event.

**Event Type**

Required. Select **Regular** for a regular event.

**Event Name**

Required. Give it a name your guests will recognize.

**Description**

Optional. Provide a description of the event you are hosting.

**Event Start Date**

Required. When the event begins. You can set it to **TBD (To Be Decided)** if you are not sure yet.

**Event End Date**

Optional. When the event ends. You can set it to **TBD** if you are not sure. The event can also span multiple days, with a schedule spread across them.

**Venue**

Optional. An address, venue name, or "TBD." Fast Party will look up Google Maps and try to find the location. You can also provide additional details such as a landmark, floor number, or any instructions for guests arriving at the venue.

**Hosted By**

Required. Defaults to your name as the host — the creator of the event. You can edit this to show an organization name or someone else's name if you are hosting on their behalf. This is visible to guests and indicates who is hosting the event.

**Add Links**

Optional. Add buttons with any links that will be helpful for guests attending the event — such as directions, a dress code page, or a dedicated event website.

Click **Save** to save your event information.

## Editing an event

All event fields can be edited at any time from the event settings page. If you change the date or time after invitations have already been sent, Fast Party will offer to notify your guests of the update.

## Deleting an event

To delete an event, open ellipsis on the right top corner of the event page and select **Delete event**. If guests have already received invitations, they'll be notified that the event has been cancelled.

<Warning>
  Deleting an event is permanent. All guest data, agendas, tasks, and potluck information for that event will be removed.
