# Events
The Events module is another excellent marketing channel that allows Communities to share time sensitive events with their supporters that are happening online or IRL like hackathons, AMAs, launches and more.
### Creating An Event
\
From the 'My Community' dashboard:
1. Navigate to the 'Events' tab.
2. Click on the '+ Event' button.
3. Fill in your event details.
Events are comprised of:
* Event name
* Event banner image
* Event start/end date and time
* Subject tag (maximum of 1 tag allowed/event)
* Event location - Add a physical address
* Event description
### Make A Splash: 10 Tips for Maximizing Community Engagement!
1. **Create Compelling Event Titles**: Craft attention-grabbing titles that clearly communicate the essence of the event and entice visitors to learn more.
2. **Provide Detailed Descriptions**: Include comprehensive descriptions that outline what attendees can expect like activities, speakers, prizes and more.
3. **Utilize Eye-Catching Visuals**: Upload high-quality images or graphics that visually represent the event and capture attendees' interest at first glance.
4. **Set Clear Dates and Times**: Ensure that the event dates and times are accurately specified to avoid confusion.
5. **Add Event Specific Locations**: Add a physical address to IRL events to enable attendees to plan accordingly \*[**See Locations**](/splash/for-communities/getting-started/locations.md)
6. **List Events Well in Advance**: Give your Community the time to market and promote key happenings in your ecosystem.
7. **Promote Social Sharing**: Ask your supporters to spread the word about your event across their networks using the social sharing function.
8. **Promote Your Event With Posts**: Create Posts on Splash to share updates about your upcoming event and draw more attention to it.
9. **Use Accurate Subject Tags**: Ensure your audience has a very clear idea of what your event is about.
10. **Create Rich Conten**t: Make use of the rich-text editor to add headings, embed useful links and sprinkle your events with some emojis.
The Events module should be used instead of Posts when there are clearly defined times and activities for your supporters to look forward to. Events do not hold the same weight in gauging a Community's activity, so it's best to use this module as and when necessary.
