Can you still create events on Facebook?

Facebook events can help you bring together a group of friends for a birthday or raise awareness about an event your company is hosting.

Facebook users can discover these events through invites from their friends, engagement from friends, or suggestions made by the website itself. Events make it easier to share information about both one-time programs and recurring ones.

Here's how to create an event on Facebook for your brand page or personal profile from a desktop computer.

How to create an event from your business or brand page on the Facebook website

1. While on your business or brand page, click the "Events" tab under the name of your page. 

2. In the "Upcoming Events" section, click "Create New Event" in the upper-right.

3. On the next screen, choose whether your event will be "Online" or "In person."

4. On the left side of the next screen, enter an event name, start date and start time, and end date and end time, if any. The privacy level will be automatically set to public for business and brand pages. Add a description and select a category from the drop-down list of options. The right side of the screen displays a preview of what the event page will look like — click the icons in the top right corner to preview the page on a desktop or mobile app. Click "Next" on the left side of the screen once you've entered the necessary info.

Quick tip: If you're creating an in-person event, you can click "Recurring Event" and choose the frequency of your recurring event. 

5. If you're creating an in-person event, type in a physical location for the event. If you're creating an online event, choose one of the location options listed: "Facebook Live," "External link," or "Other." Click "Next."

6. On the "Additional details" page, click "Upload Cover Photo" to add your event page's cover photo. Click "Event settings" to add co-hosts, make your guest list viewable to all invitees, and choose admin and posting restrictions.

7. When you're done, click "Create Event."

8. Before taking you to your newly created event page, a pop-up will ask you if you want to "Boost your event." When you boost your event, you can pay for targeted event ads to specific audiences. 

9. On the right side of your event page, click "Share event" or "Link a group" to notify people of your public event. Unlike with personal events, business or brand events don't have the option to invite specific friends from your friends list.

You can change any of your event settings at any time by clicking "Edit" in the top-right corner of your event page.

How to create an event from your personal profile on the Facebook website

1. Go to Facebook website on a web browser and log into your account if necessary. From the homepage, click "Events" in the sidebar menu on the left.

2. Click "Create New Event" on the left side of the Events page.

3. On the next screen, choose whether your event will be "Online" or "In person."

4. On the left side of the next screen, enter an event name, date and time, and privacy level. The right side of the screen displays a preview of what the event page will look like — click the icons in the top right corner to preview the page on a desktop or mobile app. Click "Next" on the left side of the screen once you've entered the necessary info.

5. If you're creating an in-person event, type in a physical location for the event. If you're creating an online event, choose one of the location options listed: "Messenger Rooms," "Facebook Live," "External link," or "Other." Click "Next."

6. On the next screen, enter a description for the event, and click "Next" when you're done.

7. On the "Additional details" page, you can click "Upload Cover Photo" or "Choose Illustration" for your event page's cover photo. Click "Event settings" to add co-hosts and make your guest list viewable to all invitees.

8. When you're done, click "Create Event."

9. Now that the basics of your event are created, you can begin inviting guests. On the event page, click "Invite" in the upper-right corner. In the pop-up, select the friends you want to invite, and click "Send Invitations."

You can now see your guest list on the right side of the event page, including who's "going," who's still a "maybe," and who all has been "invited."

After you create your event, you can always edit these fields. You can also invite new guests or post more information by updating the description or posting on the event wall.
