Recurring events are perfect for shows, performances, or activities that happen regularly – daily, weekly, or monthly. With XTIX, you can create and manage all sessions in one place.


How to Create a Recurring Event

  1. Log in to your XTIX account

  2. Go to Events → click New Event → choose Recurrent Event

Just like with a single event, enter:

  • Category and subcategory

  • Event name

  • Description

  • Venue

Then move on to scheduling.


Set the Schedule

Choose how often the event repeats:

  • Monthly – Pick a specific date (e.g. the 5th) or weekday (e.g. first Monday)

  • Weekly – Select the days of the week

  • Daily – The event happens every day

Set the start and end dates for the event.


Define Sessions

If all sessions happen at the same time:

  • Enter the number of sessions

  • Set the start and end time

If times vary by day:

  • Select Depends on weekday

  • Set times for each day separately


Ticket Setup

Ticketing works the same as for single events. You can apply ticket settings to:

  • All sessions

  • Or individual sessions

With a Seating Chart:

  • Choose a session to configure ticketing

Without a Seating Chart:

  • Select a session and add ticket categories

💡 In the ticket summary:

  • Solid blocks = category available in all sessions

  • Semi-transparent blocks = category available in some sessions

Click Save to finalize the schedule and generate all sessions.

⏳ This may take a few moments.


Managing Sessions

After creation, you can:

  • Delete individual sessions

  • Edit the event description

  • Enable automatic pricing for all or selected sessions

  • View seating charts for each session

  • Start or stop sales for the full event or specific sessions

  • Get widget codes for the full event or individual sessions

⚠️ Adding new sessions to an existing recurring event will be available soon.


Starting Sales

To start selling tickets:

  • Go to the event management page

  • Click Start Sales

You’ll see sales stats for the full event and each session.


How the Widget Works

The recurring event widget guides customers through three simple steps:

  1. Select a Date – Choose from available dates

  2. Choose a Session – If more than one session is available that day

  3. Select Tickets – Pick from the seating map or ticket categories
