Solution
Run private or unlisted events
Keep an event site unlisted while you prepare, or run invite-only events that never hit the public index.
Why it matters
Event operations work better when the data stays connected.
VendlyNest keeps the event page, ticketing, participant intake, sponsor packages, booth assignments, orders, passes, support, and check-in in one organizer-controlled system - so a change in one place shows up everywhere it matters.
- Draft status keeps pages private
- Public visibility toggle per event
- Share preview links with the team
The old way
What this replaces.
Soft launches that leak.
No way to stage the site before announcing.
FAQ
Common questions.
Who can see a draft event?
Only your team - the public URL activates when you publish.
Can a published event stay unlisted?
Yes - disable public visibility to keep it link-only.
Do search engines index drafts?
No - drafts aren't served publicly, and the sitemap only lists published events.
