Luma Calendar Overview

You've created an event, great! Now you want to invite your friends, customers, or leads to join you at the event. 

In Luma, we've built a powerful invite system so that you can send email, SMS and push notification invitations to your guests. And they will be able to easily accept or decline those invites. 

In this video, I will show you how to invite and add people to your event. We will go through the process of inviting guests using the "Invite Guests" button on the event page or in the iOS app. I will demonstrate how to search for suggestions, add emails, and import a CSV file. It's important to only upload emails from people who have consented to receive invites from you. I will also explain how to tag people on the calendar level and filter based on those tags. No action is requested from the viewers.

How to Invite and Add People to Your Event

You can invite people from the website or the iOS app. 

Guests will always receive an email and if they have linked their phone number, they will also receive an SMS message. 

On web, you can connect your Google Account to sync over your Google Contacts to Luma. This makes it easy to quickly invite your Google contacts to your new event.

In the iOS app, you can sync your phone's contacts to invite anyone in your contacts to your event.

If you sync over contacts, you'll be able to invite people by phone number, if you don't have their email. So this is a great way to send SMS invites to your friends.

Note that if your event or ticket has Require Approval on, inviting guests will bypass this setting. If someone registers from an invite, they will be automatically approved. 

You can also add guests directly to your event. When you add a guest, they will be marked as Going and will not need to accept the invite. 

Additionally, when you add a guest, we send them a calendar invite that should automatically add the event to their calendar. 

This is a great way to add VIPs or people who have already opted into joining your event.

Inviting and Adding Guests to Your Event

Hi, here is a video which shows an overview of how you can manage events with calendars and how you can transfer an event between calendars.

In this Loom, I explain how calendars work on Luma, focusing on event creation and management. I clarify the different ways calendars can be used and how events are associated with specific calendars. I also demonstrate how to create an event under a personal calendar and how to move an event between calendars. Additionally, I highlight the importance of public and team calendars and their impact on Luma Plus features. Watch this Loom to gain a better understanding of calendar functionality on Luma.

Calendars on Luma: Understanding Event Creation and Management

Every event is managed by a primary calendar. By default this is the Personal Calendar of the person who created the event.

The primary calendar of the event determines who has access to the event along with how the event receives Luma Plus benefits. 

You can transfer the primary calendar of an event by going to the Manage Event > More tab and transferring the event there. You cannot transfer to another personal calendar, only to a team calendar. 

Manage events with your calendar and transfer an event to a different calendar.

Understanding Calendar Permissions

You can see the list of Calendar Members by opening 

 → Choosing a Calendar → then opening the People tab. 

There are a few different ways people are added to that list:

You can tag members, filter by tags, and sort by name, number of events attended, or number of events checked in. 

When you click on a Calendar Member, you can see more details about them. 

From the Calendar Member detail panel, you have a couple options to remove a member:

Managing Calendar Members

Calendar Memberships are a great way to give special access to events and other content to your members. Calendar Memberships are great for run clubs, startup accelerators, and social clubs. 

With a Calendar Membership you can create different tiers and choose how people can join each tier.

You have the following price options for each tier: 

You’re able to set up each tier with registration questions that members fill out when they join and you can require admin approval so that applications are reviewed before members become active. 

Once a member is active in a tier, you can grant them special access to events and other content. 

To get started, you can add a Membership Tier to your Calendar.

Once you publish that Membership Tier, then members will be able to join your Membership.
