Heads up!

What gets duplicated?
Besides the settings mentioned above, all other event information, assets, and settings are copied to the new event.
- Registration page and form
- Agenda
- Speakers
- Assets like slides, videos, polls, surveys, resources
- Engagement settings
- Event branding, including look & feel settings
- Email settings
- Vanity URLs
- Tracking pixels
- SSO login settings
- Rooms and booths
Attention! When duplicating an event that includes multiple rooms and booths, please note that the original order may not be preserved in the duplicate. However, you can rearrange the rooms and booths as needed for the new event, ensuring that they meet your specific requirements.
Pro Tip: Review the Look & Feel section to double-check if the branding for the duplicated event has the correct assets. For instance, the social media image might need to be updated to match the new date & time.
