Send Reminders Before An Event

Set up automated reminders for events.

  • You must have permission to Manage Events
When an event posts to the Connect App newsfeed, notifications are sent. However, there are no further reminders of your event unless you set them up. Automated reminders drive attendance and engagement.
  1. While creating or editing an event, under Reminders, click to turn on Send reminders before the event. You can't set reminders when you edit a single occurrence of a recurring event.
  2. In the Send list, select how long before the event to send the reminder: 1 to 6 days, 1 week, or 2 weeks. The default is 2 days.
  3. To add another reminder, click + Add a second reminder and select the number of days.
Registrants will receive reminders at the intervals you selected. For a group event, everyone on the group's roster who has an email address gets the reminder. It includes the event's date, time, and location or online meeting link. If the event allows simple RSVP, the reminder also shows how many people each person said are coming and any items they signed up to bring.
