Event Duplication

Are you running an event similar to a past event you've hosted, or are you looking to duplicate the event you have so that you can do tests without messing up your actual event? If so, you may be able to save some time by duplicating that event. 

  • Click your profile on the upper right corner and select My Events

  • Click Duplicate on the event.

  • Add the Event Name

  • Select the event elements to copy to the new event.

  • Click Duplicate to confirm.

You can also duplicate an event from the Organizer Portal by clicking the 3 dots and clicking Duplicate.


Items that are not copied over to the duplicated event

  • Attendees

  • Dates from the previous event (e.g., event, session, gamification, tickets, etc.) will default to start on the creation date.

  • Stream Providers

  • Uploaded session videos

  • Exhibitor and Lobby polls

  • Exhibitor and Lobby Q&A

  • Badges

  • Push Notifications

  • Tracking Links

  • Surveys

  • Contacts in Manage Contacts

  • Reminder Emails

  • Sent and Scheduled Engage Emails (only drafted emails will be duplicated)


Other Event Duplication Settings

  • If you duplicate an event today, the duplicated event's start date will be one month after today. You may change the event date later when modifying the duplicate event.

  • The Agenda & Speakers tab indicates a date for each session. However, a date may not be selected when you open the session details. Assign a date for each session and update the times accordingly.

  • No stream provider will be selected for the duplicated sessions.

  • If the sessions have uploaded videos, the uploaded videos are not copied over.
