# Changing an event after it's published

## Fix a typo, move a date or change a price, and let your ticket holders know in one click.

**Quick answer:** Yes. On Stage Stubs you can change an event's name, description, venue, dates, times and ticket prices after it goes on sale, even on seated shows. Open the event from My Events and use the button next to each detail. When something important changes, click Notify All Buyers to email every ticket holder.

Things change, and that's absolutely fine. Whether you've spotted a typo, the venue's had to move you, or you'd like to add a concession price, you can change most things about your event after it's gone on sale.

### Opening your event

Go to **My Events** and click **View** next to your event. Everything below starts from here.

### Changing the event's details

Each detail on your event's page has its own button next to it, so you can change just the bit you need:

| To change | Click |
| --- | --- |
| The name | **Rename event** |
| The description | **Edit description** |
| The venue | **Change venue** |
| When tickets go on sale (if they're not on sale yet) | **Change on-sale time** |
| The password | **Add a password** or **Change the password** |
| The most tickets one person can buy | **Set a ticket limit** or **Change the limit** |
| The cover image | **Replace image** or **Choose from library** |

### Changing a date or time

Scroll down to your showings and click **View showing** next to the date you'd like to change. From there you can update the **Start time**, **End time**, **Ticket sales open** and **Ticket sales close**, then save. Times are always in the venue's time zone.

Need to pause sales for one date, perhaps while you sort out the seating? Click **Stop sales** next to it, and **Resume sales** when you're ready. Tickets already sold aren't affected.

### Changing prices

Open the showing, go to its **Tickets** section and click **Update** next to the ticket. Change the price and save. Want to add a new price, like a concession? Click **Create Ticket Variation**.

This works on seated shows too. The only thing you can't do once an event is published is add a completely new ticket type or section.

### Letting your ticket holders know

If you change the name, description, venue or a showing's time, you'll see a box called **Event Changes Detected**. We'd always recommend telling your buyers: click **Add Message** if you'd like to write a personal note, then **Notify All Buyers**, and everyone with a ticket gets an email. Families who've saved their tickets to their phone's wallet will see the new details there automatically too.

### What can't be changed

A few things are fixed once your event is live: the layout and number of seats on an approved seating plan, and whether the event is free or paid, or has a seating plan. If you need to change one of these, email us and we'll help you find the best way round it.

### Common questions

**Will buyers be told if I change the date?** Only if you click Notify All Buyers when asked. We'd always recommend it.

**Can I add a new ticket type after publishing?** You can add new prices (Create Ticket Variation), but not a whole new ticket type or section.
