# Events

> Publishing events, bookings, the waitlist and check-in.

## Publish an event

**Administration → Events → New event.** Give the title in both languages,
the date and time (Baghdad time), the venue and, if places are limited, the
capacity. Add registration questions only if you need the answers.

An event goes live when you publish it. Members-only events appear only in
the Nexus.

## Bookings and the waitlist

Members book from the Nexus Events page. When an event is full, new
bookings join the waitlist. When someone gives their place back, or you
raise the capacity, the next person waiting gets it and an email.

## Check-in

Event staff open the event in **Administration → Events** and scan each
member's ticket code from their Nexus home page, or find them by name.
Attendance counts toward Voting Member status.

## Canceling

Cancel rather than delete: the event stays listed as canceled, and you
should tell the people who booked.
