On OpenStage.one, every event is a series with one or more dates (occurrences). As a host, you mainly shape:
When creating a series, you pick an event type from the catalog. Today you’ll find three types:
The type determines how OpenStage categorizes your series in search and how it’s shown as a chip in the event header.
The series type controls how OpenStage manages the individual dates:
You plan exactly one date. In this case there is no repeating structure (no seasons, no schedule rule).
You add multiple manual dates. Instead of defining a repetition rule, you work with a list of dates – typically if the event schedule isn’t consistent.
For irregular series, the address can also differ per date. If you leave the series address empty, you must provide the address for each individual date.
You define a recurrence rule (e.g. “every Wednesday”) plus a time range via start/end window. OpenStage then generates the individual occurrences for the planned timeframe.
If you need extra dates or exceptions, you can add exceptions (e.g. “an extra session during a holiday”).
Seasons exist for irregular and recurring series. A season is a named, inclusive date window, for example “Summer 2026” or “Winter 2025/2026”.
Why seasons help:
Infographics are share graphics (not classic posters) that help you promote your series and individual dates on Instagram, WhatsApp, and similar channels.
Typical flow:
These statuses affect future dates differently.
Pausing a series applies to future dates that are not manually canceled yet:
Later, you can resume the series. Only dates affected by the pause are brought back; manually canceled dates stay canceled.
When you cancel a single date, the series remains. Only that date is marked as “canceled”.
You can also undo the cancellation later, without impacting the whole series.
Besides changing base details, you can:
In your profile you’ll find an overview of your series under:
/profile/eventsYou can see upcoming dates and status badges (for example “Paused” or “Canceled”) and jump to “View” or “Edit”.
Pausing is a series-wide switch for the future. Canceling targets individual dates. When you resume, only pause-affected dates are restored.
Seasons are named time windows that dates are assigned to. That keeps the timeline easy to read and makes it possible to add a “New season” later.
Yes—especially for irregular series. If you leave the series address empty, you must provide the address for each date.
Yes. For recurring series you can add extra occurrences as exceptions, so single dates can differ from the default pattern.
