Event Public URL

Every published event has a public link on your site. It is the one you share on social media, in your emails and in your ads. This guide explains how it is composed, which part you can customize, and what happens to old links when you change it.


An event's public URL lives inside your site and looks like this:

https://your-site/event/{identifier}

The identifier is the part you can customize. When you create the event, Fanz generates one automatically by combining the event's internal number and its title, for example:

https://your-site/event/12345-spring-festival
  • your-site is your Fanz site's domain (your subdomain, or your own domain if you connected one).
  • 12345 is the event's internal number. That number never changes.
  • spring-festival is the readable part, generated from the title.

Note: There are no per-event subdomains. All your events share your site's domain and are told apart by the identifier that follows /event/.


Identifier rules

You can replace the generated identifier with your own, as long as it follows these rules:

RuleDetail
Allowed charactersOnly lowercase letters (a-z), numbers (0-9) and hyphens (-)
LengthBetween 3 and 100 characters
Cannot be numbers onlyAn identifier like 2026 is not allowed
No leading or trailing hyphensIf you type them, the dashboard strips them on save
Unique within your brandTwo of your events cannot share the same identifier

If you type uppercase letters, spaces or symbols, the field converts them to lowercase and hyphens automatically. If you try to save an identifier already used by another one of your events, you will see the message "This URL is already taken".

Valid examples: spring-festival-2026, jazz-night, wine-fair.


Where to edit it in the dashboard

  1. Go to Events and open the event.
  2. At the top of the screen, above the title, you will see the event's public URL with a pencil icon next to it.
  3. Click the pencil. The last part of the link becomes an editable field.
  4. Type the new identifier and confirm with the check mark. You will see the message "URL updated successfully".

From that same screen, the Go to event button opens the public link in a new tab, and the event menu has a Copy url option to copy it to the clipboard.

Note: Only team members with edit permission on the event can change the URL. Editing is available in the desktop version of the dashboard.


Before changing the identifier of an event you have already published, keep in mind how links are resolved:

  • Links that start with the internal number keep working. For example, /event/12345-spring-festival and /event/12345 always lead to the event, even after you changed the identifier.
  • An old custom identifier stops working. If you had /event/spring-festival and change it to /event/spring-festival-2026, the previous link no longer finds the event.

Practical recommendation: set the identifier before you start promoting the event. If you need to change it later, update the links on social media, emails and ads.


If your event has several dates, from the dashboard you can open or copy the link with the date selected in the header. In that case the link includes an extra parameter so the site shows that date directly. The /event/{identifier} part stays the same.


Frequently asked questions

Can I use a different domain for each event? No. The domain is your site's. What you customize is the identifier after /event/.

Can I reuse the same identifier for two events? Not within the same brand. Each identifier is unique among your events.

Does changing the URL affect tickets already sold? No. Tickets and purchases do not depend on the URL identifier.

Can I go back to the automatically generated identifier? Yes, you can type any valid identifier, including one with the original format.
