Classta Events: Simple ticket sales for workshops and one-off events
Classta Events let you sell tickets for workshops, retreats, and one-off events directly from your booking page. They're built for simple ticket sales — straightforward setup, clear limits, and no recurring schedules.
What are Events?
Events are single-date offerings with one or more ticket types (e.g. General Admission, VIP). Each type has its own price and capacity. Customers choose a type, enter their details (and optional attendee names), pay via Stripe, and receive a confirmation email with a ticket link they can show at the door (or use a QR code from the email).
Where they appear: Published events are shown in two places:
- Dedicated Events page — A full page at classta.co/events/{instructor} (e.g. classta.co/events/yourname) with its own title, description, and logo. You can tailor this page for events only.
- Events section on your main booking page — An Events block with a link like #events so visitors can jump straight to events.
Who can use Events: Events are enabled per account. If you don't see an Events tab in the admin, contact support to have it turned on.
How to set up an Event
-
Open the Events tab
In the Classta admin dashboard, go to Events (if you have the feature).
Create event
Click Create event and fill in:
- Title (required) — e.g. "Breathwork Workshop"
- Description (optional)
- Location (optional) — venue or address
- Starts at / Ends at — date and time
- Ticket types — at least one; for each type you set:
- Id — short identifier (e.g. general, vip)
- Name — label shown to customers (e.g. "General Admission")
- Price — in your account currency (£, $, etc.)
- Capacity — max number of tickets for that type
- Max tickets per order — limit how many tickets one customer can buy (default 10).
- Status — Draft (hidden from the public) or Published (visible and bookable).
- Show on main booking page - whether you want the event to also appear on your class booking page. If left off it will only appear on your /events page.
-
Publish
Set status to Published when you're ready for tickets to be sold. Only published events appear on your events page and booking page.
-
Edit anytime
Use Edit on an event to change title, description, location, times, ticket types, capacities, or status. Be careful reducing capacity below already-sold tickets.
What Events can do
- Sell tickets for one-off events and workshops with Stripe (same payment setup as classes).
- Multiple ticket types per event (e.g. General vs VIP) with different prices and capacities.
- Per-type capacity — when a type sells out, it's no longer selectable; remaining counts are shown on the public page.
- Discount coupons — percentage or fixed-amount coupons can be applied at checkout. A 100% discount gives a free ticket (no payment). Session bundles apply to classes only; for events, discount coupons are used.
- Buyer details — name and email required; optional attendee names when buying more than one ticket.
- Confirmation and ticket link — after payment (or free booking), the buyer gets an email with event details and ticket summary, and a QR code that can be scanned on entry to check eligibility. You get a separate notification email for each order. Use the QR code to check eligibility.
- Ticket page — scan the QR code to see a page with date/time, location, ticket type, quantity, and attendee names.
- Orders in admin — view all orders for an event, search by buyer name or email, see ticket type, quantity, total, and payment status.
- Cancel & refund — for Stripe payments you can use Cancel & refund in the Events tab. This refunds the payment and releases the tickets back into capacity. Refunds for other payment methods are handled in the provider's dashboard.
- Export to CSV — export paid orders (ticket type, buyer name/email, quantity, total, date, additional attendees) for your records or check-in.

Designed for simplicity
Events is built for straightforward ticket sales — the kind needed when you run occasional workshops or one-off events alongside your regular classes. It covers the essentials (tickets, payment, confirmation, check-in) and is not meant to replace dedicated event platforms with advanced features like built-in reminders, waitlists, or complex recurring setups.
