The Magic Ticket Event Creator is designed to give you complete control over your event—its structure, ticketing, features, revenue engine, and guest experience—without the complexity you’d expect from a platform this powerful. Whether you’re hosting your first gathering or managing large-scale productions, the Event Creator guides you through a streamlined, flexible creation flow that adapts to your needs.
This section walks you through the core steps to create and publish your event using Magic Ticket.
1. Start a New Event #
After logging into your Magic Ticket dashboard, navigate to
Event Manager → Event Creator.
You’ll land in the Event Creator, which is structured into clear sections:
- Event Details
- Venue Information
- Ticket Levels

Each section expands as you make selections, revealing only the options relevant to your event.
2. Enter Your Event Basics #
Begin by providing the essentials:

3. Add Your Venue Details #
Next, fill in your location information:
- Venue Name & Address

- Visibility Settings (public, private link, password-protected, or application-based)
Magic Ticket uses this information to generate your event page, guest directions, and day-of messaging.
4. Create Your Ticket Levels #
Ticket Levels are the core of your checkout experience. Each level represents a type of access (e.g., General Admission, VIP, Backstage).
You can add up to five ticket levels. For each level, define:

Magic Ticket automatically handles availability, logic, caps, and purchase flows behind the scenes.
