Duplicating an event creates a new event pre-filled with an existing event's setup. Attendees, orders, and statistics do not carry over — the duplicate starts with a clean attendee list. Use it when you run a recurring event or a series and want to reuse a finished setup instead of starting from scratch. You will find the feature under Event settings, on the Danger zone tab.
Decide whether duplicating is the right tool. It fits when the new event has a similar format and you only need to change the date and adjust the content. For a genuinely different event, creating a new one from scratch is cleaner.
Know up front what does not carry over — attendees, orders, discount codes, and ticket statistics stay with the original event. For a recurring event that is what you want: you start the new event with an empty attendee list.
Open Event settings → Danger zone and click Duplicate event. A new event is created, which you then edit.
Essentially the whole "skeleton" of the event carries over — how it looks, what it asks the attendee, and how you communicate with them:
Basic event, language, graphics, and e-mail settings.
Content and engagement feature settings — except the Online module settings.
The Registration form and microsite settings.
The Invitation and Confirmation e-mail settings.
The Tickets settings.
The Online module (livestream, video, 3D, and social wall) is the one exception: its settings do not carry into the duplicate. If you use it at your event, set it up again in the duplicate.
Attendees and attendee data.
Orders, discount codes, and ticket statistics.
Push notifications and announcements.
These are data from a specific run of the event, not setup. So the new event starts clean — no people, no sales history, no sent notifications. Re-create any discount codes you want to reuse by hand in the duplicate.
Duplicating lives under Event settings, on the Danger zone tab — the same tab as Delete event. Danger zone groups high-impact actions; duplicating belongs there because it creates a new event.
Basic settings carry over, so the new event gets the same name and date as the original. Rename the duplicate and set a new date (and check the time zone) right after you create it — otherwise you will have two events with the same name in your list, and attendees will see last year's date.
If your event uses the Online module, its configuration is missing in the duplicate — it is the one exception among the content and engagement features that carry over. Set it up again after duplicating, or the online part of the event stays empty.
The same tab also holds Delete event, which removes the event permanently. Duplicate event is safe — it only creates a new event — but deletion is not. Make sure which button you are clicking before you click.
