Event rules

Here are the basic requirements for event hosts:

Whether you've hosted an action before or not, we will provide you with all the information you need to hold a successful event! Hosting an action is simple and fun. You’ll be provided with a host guide, invited to join a prep call for event hosts, and you’ll receive support to invite attendees and the media to your event. We will work hard to review all questions that are emailed to us.

By creating an event, you are agreeing to serve as the host of the meeting. Your responsibilities as host include:

Arranging that all the necessary materials are brought to the event (you can ask other participants for help).

Contacting and communicating with the people who participate in your event. We will encourage attendees not to attend an event where the host has not confirmed their participation.

Filing a quick post-meeting report.

Required — I can meet the requirements for hosting an event.
