Event Date & Time
Learn how to set the start/end date and time and time zone for business events like conferences and seminars.
A section that shows the start and end dates and time zone for business events such as conferences, seminars, and webinars.
What Is the Event Date & Time Section?
- Start/end date and time: Enter the event's start date/time and end date/time separately
- All-day event: Show only the date without a time (useful for exhibitions, etc.)
- Time zone display: Show time zone information for participants joining from abroad
- Add to calendar: A button that lets participants add the event to their own calendar
Setting Up the Event Date & Time
Set Up in the Editor
- Add the Event Date & Time section from the left panel of the editing screen
- Configure the following fields:
| Setting | Description |
|---|---|
| Title | Optional (uses the default label if left blank) |
| All-day event | When enabled, the time input fields disappear and only the date is shown |
| Start date/time | The start of the event |
| End date/time | Optional, used for events spanning multiple days |
| Show time zone | When enabled, time zone information and a selector are displayed |
| Time zone | Select the reference time zone (default: Asia/Seoul) |
| Add to calendar button | When enabled, participants can save the event to their calendar |
| Use background color | Whether to apply an accent color to the section background |
Start and End Date/Time
- Start is required, and unless it's an all-day event, you must also enter a time (default 10:00).
- End is optional. If your conference spans two or more days, enter a separate end date (default 18:00).
If you leave the end date/time blank, only the start date/time will be shown.
Time Zone Display
If your event has overseas speakers or online participants, turn on Show time zone.
- Once you select a reference time zone, it will be shown alongside each visitor's local time zone.
- The list of time zones is automatically sorted based on the start date.
For global conferences or webinars, it's a good idea to turn on time zone display to reduce confusion for participants.
Your language sets the default time zone
New invitations start with the time zone that matches the language you write in, so an English event is not silently saved on Seoul time.
| Invitation language | Default time zone |
|---|---|
| Korean | Seoul |
| English | New York |
| Japanese | Tokyo |
| Spanish | Madrid |
| Vietnamese | Ho Chi Minh City |
| Chinese | Singapore |
- Invitations that already have a time zone keep it — the default never overwrites your choice
- If the default does not match your venue, pick the right one from the list
- Personal invitations such as weddings and first birthdays are outside this behaviour
Picking a venue prompts a time zone check
When you choose a venue on the map in the Location section, its time zone is compared with your current setting.
| Situation | What happens |
|---|---|
| No time zone set | Filled in from the venue, with a notice |
| Set, and different from the venue | You are asked — [Keep as is] or [Use venue time zone] |
| Set, and the same | Nothing happens |
Your own setting always wins. Changing the venue never silently overwrites a time zone you chose; it only changes when you press [Use venue time zone]. [Keep as is] is the default.
You are asked even when the offsets match but the cities differ. Seoul and Tokyo are both GMT+9, so the app asks which one you mean rather than guessing.
What changing the time zone actually affects
The times and wording on the invitation do not change. If you entered 2 PM, guests still see 2 PM.
Only three things follow the time zone:
- Add to calendar: the absolute time saved into an attendee's calendar
- Search listings: the reference time passed to search engines
- Check-in list: how times are labelled in the dashboard and Excel → Event check-in
The RSVP deadline is also interpreted in the event time zone. → Settings tab
Add to Calendar Button
When you turn on Add to calendar, visitors can add the event to their calendar app with a single click.
