Events & RSVP
Event times & your time zone#
Times on event pages and the calendar are shown in your saved time zone when you are signed in.
- Open Account settings → Time zone.
- Choose Your time zone (or Use my device time zone).
- Check Current local time preview, then Save time zone.
If you have not saved a time zone yet, times may follow the site default and look “off” on your clock. Full steps: Account & profile — Time zone.
For live sessions, the banner also shows the exact Join unlock time in your zone — see Join online.
Find an event#
- Open Events in the main menu (events list), or use Events from My Dashboard Quick links when shown.
- Use the list or calendar to pick a day.
- Click the event title to open its page (time, place or Online badge, description, RSVP, and join controls).
Who can see an event#
| Kind of event | What it means for you |
|---|---|
| Public | Guests and members can open the page |
| Members only | You must be signed in |
| Invite-only / limited | Only invited members get RSVP and Join |
If the page says the event is limited to invited members, RSVP and Join stay unavailable for your account.
RSVP#
- On the event page, find the RSVP panel.
- Click Attending, Interested, or Can't attend.
- Confirm. The panel shows Your response and counts for each option.
Also note Closes / Closed if a registration deadline is shown.
When RSVP closes#
- RSVP closes when the event starts (you may see RSVP is closed — this event is in progress.).
- Organisers may set an earlier Registration closes time (Registration for this event has closed.).
- If you see Sign in to RSVP, sign in first.
- If you see You do not have permission to RSVP or RSVP is not available for this event, use Support.
Guest RSVP (public events)#
Some public events let guests RSVP without a full account:
- Choose Attending, Interested, or Can't attend.
- In Guest RSVP, enter Your name and Email (required); Phone is optional.
- Add a note only if the form asks for one.
- Click Save RSVP / Confirm - ….
Members can still Sign in to RSVP with their account instead.
Why RSVP matters for online Join#
Unless the organiser allows join without RSVP, only Attending or Interested unlocks Join while the session is live. Can't attend does not unlock Join. Details: Join online.
External tickets#
If the organiser uses an outside registration site, the event page may show Tickets. That opens their ticket or registration URL in a new tab.
Join while the event is live#
If the event is online:
- Stay on the event page (or reopen it from Events).
- When Join unlocks (at start, or a few minutes early if the organiser set early unlock), use the banner buttons — see Join online.
- After the event, check About this event for Watch recording if a recording was published.
