Some events have a page that anyone can open without signing in: cover image, description, speakers, an agenda when the event has sessions, and a card to register or buy a ticket. Built for organisers promoting an event to people who are not members yet, and who should be able to register without creating an account first. Replaces a separate event site or ticketing page that has no idea who your members are.

​
Which events have one

One rule, and both halves of it must be true:
  • the event is published, and
  • its audience is set to Public or Private link.
Ticketing does not change this. A members-only event with ticketing enabled has no public page, because members buy their tickets on the event page inside the app. Anything that fails either half refuses the request: the visitor gets a “not found” page, not a login prompt and not the event details. Private link events have a public page like any other, but they are left out of the public event directory and public lists, and the page asks search engines not to index it. Only people you give the link to will find it. An unpublished public event (a draft) has no public page for visitors. You can still look at it yourself with Preview public page, and you can send people without an account a preview link (see Previewing a draft). Marking an event public is gated by Settings → Events → Who Can Create Public Events. That setting is a ceiling, not an alternative route: if it is set to organization-wide event managers, someone who is only a chapter event manager and ticks “Public” has the flag silently dropped on save. Events hosted by a private (non-joinable) group can never be public. Ticketing needs an organization-wide event manager. Organization financial managers see the Paid option and the Tickets and Payments screens, but saving a Paid event still needs an organization-wide event manager.

​
The address

On the shared domain app.orgo.space the link also needs ?workspace=<your slug> so the page knows which organisation it belongs to. On a custom domain the organisation is resolved from the domain and no parameter is needed. Open the event and use Public page in the event sidebar to see the page as a visitor does, with the right parameters already attached. The entry appears once the event is published and public.

​
What a visitor sees

Someone who already registered sees their own status instead of the ticket picker: their ticket or registration, a button to show the QR code, and, when the event runs votes, a Vote tab. That also works for a non-member ticket holder, whose emailed link carries a personal hash parameter that identifies them without an account. The {eventAgendaUrl} placeholder in emails and newsletters produces exactly that personalised link. Registration is covered in Ticketing and Registration forms. The page also shows state: “Registrations are closed” when the organiser used Close registrations in the event’s Actions menu, “This event is full” when capacity is reached, and no registration card at all once the event has ended (after its end time, or 24 hours after the start when no end time was set).

​
What is never exposed

The public payload is a deliberately narrow slice of the event. These are left out entirely, so they cannot leak through the page or through the underlying request:
  • the online meeting link (visitors see only that the event is online),
  • the attendee list, and the organiser and hosting group,
  • the event’s draft or published state, and any internal report fields,
  • ticket types that name specific membership levels, which are fetched separately after sign-in and only for a member whose level is on the allowlist.
A plain Members only ticket, one with no membership levels named, is not hidden from the public page. Its name, price and remaining seats are served to anonymous visitors, greyed out with a members only badge. Only tickets that name specific levels are withheld.Treat a ticketed event page as public. If a price should not be seen by non-members, do not put it on a ticketed event.
Cover images and agenda images are copied into a public storage folder when an event becomes public or ticketed, so they can be served to signed-out visitors.

​
Previewing a draft

While an event is a draft, organisers see an Only organizers can see this event banner on the event page with two buttons, shown for public drafts only:
  • Preview public page opens the public page as a visitor will see it, with a “Preview, not published” notice. Nothing on a preview can register, hold or pay.
  • Share preview gives a link and QR code that anyone can open without an account, until you publish the event or press Reset link (which makes the old link stop working).

​
Appearance

What sits behind the page is the event’s Background: a color or a photo, set from the event form or the top of the event page. See Page background. An event with no background uses its cover image or cover color. Colours and the hero image rounding are set per event under Registration form → Appearance (Selected color, Button color (an event with none uses the Checkout color from Branding), Hero image border radius, Display title). That editor only exists on events that require a registration form, which every ticketed event does. See Registration forms for the full table. There is no per-event logo control and no theme picker: the page uses your organisation logo and follows the visitor’s light or dark preference unless the link carries ?light or ?iframe.

​
Common questions

The link is missing ?workspace=<slug> and the visitor has never opened your organisation in that browser. Copy the link from Share on the event page, or open Public page in the event sidebar, rather than from your address bar.
Yes, if your organisation has a custom domain. The page is then served from it and the workspace parameter is unnecessary. Otherwise it lives on app.orgo.space.
The /public/event/... address is a JavaScript page, and social platforms do not run it, so they show generic details. See Sharing events.
Member-only tickets are only returned to a signed-in member whose current membership level matches the ticket. Ask them to sign in on the same page, then reload.
It does. Past events keep their address and keep showing the description, agenda and speakers. Only the registration card disappears.
