# How to create a new event
## Learn how to create a new event from the organization dashboard using the Event Setup Wizard. This guide walks you through adding event details and configuring settings for Virtual, Hybrid, or In-Person events.
### **Steps to Create a New Event:**
1. From the Organization Dashboard, click the Create New Event button at the top-right corner of your screen.
2. On the **Event Detail** step, enter the **Event Title**. The **Event URL** fills in automatically from the title; choose a domain from the dropdown, or switch on **Custom Domain** to use your own. Click **Check Availability** and wait for the green **Available** label. Then set **Event Starts**, **Event Ends** and the **Timezone**.
3. Scroll down and choose the type of event you are hosting: **Virtual Event**, **Hybrid Event** or **Onsite Event**. Then pick an **Event Format** such as Conference, Career Fair or Trade Show.
Select the **Event Country**, enter the **Event Location** and choose the event **Language(s)**.
4. Optionally assign **Groups** and a **Tag**, then set **Event Visibility** to Public or Private. Click **Continue**.
****
5. On the **Event Modules** step, tick the modules your event needs. The preview on the right shows how the backend menu will look. Click **Create Event**.
****
6. vFairs shows a **Setting Up Your Event** progress bar while it creates the event. When it finishes, you return to the dashboard and the new event appears at the top of the events list. Use the pencil icon to edit its details, or **Login to Event Backend** to continue setting it up.
7. **Access the Event Backend:**
As the event owner, you can access the event backend by clicking the relevant icon displayed.
