Add sessions and speakers

Build an agenda with multiple sessions, speakers, time slots, and conference tracks.

Create an agenda for your event with sessions and speakers. This is optional, but it helps attendees know what to expect.

What are sessions?

Sessions are scheduled blocks of time during your event. Examples:

  • A keynote talk from 9–10 AM
  • A breakout workshop from 10–11 AM
  • A networking lunch from 12–1 PM

Sessions help attendees plan their day, especially at larger or multi-day events.

Add a session

  1. Go to your event and click Agenda or Add session
  2. Fill in:

- Title - What is this session about?

- Start and end time - When does it run?

- Location or room (optional) - Where is it? Useful for multi-venue events.

- Description (optional) - Details about the session

  1. Click Save

You can reorder sessions by dragging them.

Edit or remove a session

  1. Open your event and go to the Agenda & speakers step in the event editor (step 2)
  2. Find the session you want to change
  3. Click the edit (pencil) icon to update the details, or the trash icon to remove the session
  4. Click Save if you edited

Removing a session does not remove its speakers from the event — speakers stay on the event and can be reassigned to another session.

Add a speaker

  1. In the session details, click Add speaker
  2. Fill in:

- Name - Speaker's full name

- Title - Their job title or role

- Bio - 1–2 sentences about them

- Photo (optional) - Headshot or profile picture

  1. Click Save

Multiple speakers can be part of the same session.

Edit or remove a speaker

  1. Open your event and go to the Agenda & speakers step in the event editor (step 2)
  2. Find the speaker (keynote, panelist, host, or any role you added)
  3. Click the edit (pencil) icon to change their name, title, bio, photo, or which sessions they appear in
  4. Click the trash icon to remove the speaker from the event entirely
  5. Click Save if you edited

This is also where you remove a keynote speaker, panelist, or any other speaker you added by mistake.

Reorder speakers

Speakers appear on your event page in the order you arrange them, so you can lead with your keynote instead of whoever you happened to add first.

  1. Open your event and go to the Agenda & speakers step in the event editor (step 2)
  2. Grab the drag handle (the grip icon on the left of a speaker) and drag the speaker up or down
  3. The new order saves on its own, no Save needed

A speaker who appears at several sessions moves as one card, and new speakers are added to the end of the list.

Conference tracks

Tracks let you group sessions by theme — for example "Engineering", "Design", "Product" — so attendees can focus on what is relevant to them. Each track gets a color of your choosing.

Create a track

Tracks are created from inside a session.

  1. Open a session (click Add session, or the edit (pencil) icon on an existing one)
  2. Find the Tracks picker in the session details
  3. Click Create new track (or + New)
  4. Enter a name (e.g. "Engineering") and pick a color from the palette
  5. Click Save. The session is now on that track.

Track names must be unique within an event (case-insensitive).

Put a session on one or more tracks

A session can sit on several tracks, for example a joint session that belongs to both "Engineering" and "Design".

  1. Open the session
  2. In the Tracks picker, choose each track the session belongs to. A check mark shows the ones it is on.
  3. Click Save

To take a session off a track, open the session and click the x on that track, or click the track again in the picker. In the mobile app, tap the track to toggle it, or tap None to clear them all.

Rename, recolor, or delete a track

  1. Open any session and open the Tracks picker
  2. Find the track in the list and click the edit icon next to it
  3. Update the name, choose a different color, or click Delete
  4. Click Save

Deleting a track does not delete its sessions. They stay on the event and on any other tracks they have, and a session with no tracks left becomes untracked. You can reassign them at any time.

How tracks appear to attendees

On your public event page:

  • Each session card shows a colored left border and a small pill for each of its tracks
  • In the Grid view, which has one column per track, a session on several tracks appears in each of their columns
  • Above the agenda, attendees see a row of track chips. Tapping one (or more) filters the agenda down to just those tracks. "All tracks" clears the filter.

Tracks are visible on both web and the mobile app, and they carry over when you clone an event.

Multi-day events

If your event spans multiple days, sessions are automatically grouped by date. Attendees can browse the full agenda and plan which sessions to attend.

When you change the event date

Sessions move with the event. If you change your event's start date or time, every session shifts by the same amount, so each one keeps its length and its place in the running order. A session that opened 30 minutes into the event still opens 30 minutes in.

Day passes move too. On a multi-day event, a ticket valid for day 2 stays valid for day 2, so attendees keep the access they paid for.

This is what makes cloning an event straightforward: clone it, set the new date, and the agenda follows.

If a session ends up on a day outside your event dates, the session editor shows that day alongside your event's days so you can move it back.

Agenda on your event page

Your agenda appears on your event page. Attendees can see the full schedule and speaker details.

Tips

  • Keep session titles short and descriptive
  • Include the duration so attendees know how much time to block
  • Speaker photos make your agenda more visual and engaging
  • You can add or update sessions anytime, even after your event is published
