Introduction to events

An event belongs to an organizer. It groups its configuration and the sessions used to manage participants and event operations.

In the example used throughout this documentation:

  • “Demo” is the organizer;
  • “Show Set” is the event;
  • “Show Set Paris 2026” is a session in that event.
