Set when tickets go on sale

Updated 22 October 2026 · For organisers


Each ticket has its own sale window. Choose when sales open and close, and whether buyers see the deadline at checkout.

Where to find it: Step 3 → ticket Settings → Sale window

How to do it

  1. In the Tickets step, open the ticket and go to the Settings tab → Sale window.
  2. Set Starts: When the event is published, or On a date and time and pick the date and time.
  3. Set when sales close (options below).
  4. To show buyers the deadline, turn on Show the sale end date at checkout. It nudges them to book.
  5. Under Visibility, keep Show this ticket before the sale starts on to tease it, or turn it off to hide the ticket until the sale opens.
  6. Click Save ticket or Update ticket.

When sales close

Event type Your options
Single event (Ends) When the event ends, When the event start, 1 hour before the event starts, 24 hours before the event starts, or On a date and time
Repeating event (Ticket sales closing time) At session end time, or Before session start: sales close a set number of hours before each session

Tip: need to stop sales on a live event right now? See Pause or reopen sales.
