As your event evolves — whether it's a multi-day retreat, a conscious festival, a kirtan concert, or a community healing gathering — you may need to refine details or reuse a past event as a template. BrightStar makes this process simple, intuitive, and aligned with the ease and flow that define the conscious event space.
This guide shows you how to:
- Edit an existing event
- Update event information in real time
- Replicate an event for future use
- Navigate the Event Details dashboard
- Optimize your workflow for recurring, annual, or multi-stop events
🖊️ How to Edit an Existing Event
Editing allows you to update essential details as your offering naturally unfolds.
Step-by-step:
- Log in to your BrightStar account.
- Click My Events in the main menu.
- Select the event you want to modify.
- You'll land on the Event Details page.
- Click the Edit icon next to any section you want to update.
You can edit:
- Event Basics (title, subtitle, presenter names)
- When & Where (dates, times, venue, online session links)
- About (event description)
- Ticket Types and pricing
- Optional Settings (public listing, email message, upsell events, discounts, and more)
Updates save automatically and appear immediately on your live event page.
Note: Certain fields become limited once tickets are sold, preserving clarity and minimizing attendee confusion.
🔁 How to Replicate an Event
For recurring programs — annual gatherings, seasonal retreats, year-round workshops, or multi-location tours — the Replicate Event feature creates a fresh starting point without rebuilding everything from scratch.
How to copy an existing event:
- From My Events, open the event you'd like to use as a template.
- Once inside the Event Details page, click the Options button in the top-right corner.
- Select Replicate Event.
- A new Draft event will be created with:
- Title, descriptions, images
- Dates (copied but fully editable)
- Ticket types and pricing
- Custom questions and event settings
- Optional Settings (discounts, upsells, email messaging preferences)
This lets you preserve the essence of a previous event while updating only what's needed — date, location, presenter lineup, or artwork — and publish when ready.
Tip: Replication is ideal for high-frequency organizers, touring artists, yoga teachers, kirtan musicians, retreat leaders, meditation guides, breathwork facilitators, and any organizer offering recurring conscious events.
