Your events, your data

The Events Calendar runs on your WordPress site, so attendee data, ticket revenue and your brand stay with you, with no one else’s checkout in the way.

Know who’s coming

Attendee lists, reports and check-in numbers show how every event is doing, from the first ticket sale to the door.

Keep more of every ticket sale

We don’t take a cut of your ticket sales, so more of every sale stays with you. However, payment processors still charge their own fees.

Pick the number of sites you need.

Every plan includes the full package: Give, The Events Calendar, LearnDash, and Kadence.
