Funraise Events offer a complete fundraising event platform, enabling you to sell tickets and run live events — including table management, check in, paddle raises, auctions, and live displays. If you're new to Events, we suggest taking a look at our overview of all things related to Events: Event Management 101.
☝️ Event tickets are sold on Giving Forms
Once your Tickets are created, you'll be guided to connect them with a new or existing Giving Form.
This allows you to sell Tickets on an embeddable form on your website, a standard Giving Page (the easiest method), or a Campaign Site form.
Create an event
1. From the sidemenu, select Events > Events > click New Event
2. Enter basic event details > click Save
Descriptions of these event details are included below.
You'll land on your new event's manager where you can start configuring all the tickets and giving channels for your event.

FAQs
Our event is virtual but a physical address is required, how can we hide the physical address?
At this time, it is not possible to hide the physical address fields. As a workaround, you can get creative with the fields. We suggest including the city and state the event is being hosted from. For example,
