# Creating a recurring event
Set up a recurring schedule, from availability to confirmation email.
A recurring event repeats on a set schedule, like weekly clinic slots or standing office hours, rather than happening just once.
If you're setting up something like a:
* weekly clinic or counselling slot
* recurring facility booking
* standing walk-in session or office hours,
...or anything similar, this is the right track.
{% hint style="info" %}
If your event only happens once instead, like a one-time workshop or a briefing tied to a single, specific date, head to [Creating a one-off event](/creating-an-event/creating-a-one-off-event.md) instead.

## Steps
{% stepper %}
{% step %}
#### Add an event title
Give your event a clear title so attendees know what they're signing up for before they book.
{% endstep %}
{% step %}
#### Add a description
Provide any information attendees need before booking a slot, such as the purpose of the event and any other relevant details.
{% endstep %}
{% step %}
### Set booking limits
Click **Booking rules**.
Control how many people can book each slot, and how soon before the session people can still register.
You can also control how far in advance booking opens by setting a fixed date range, so bookings are only accepted within a specific start and end date.
{% endstep %}
{% step %}
#### Set your availability
Click on the **Availability** tab on the far left to set the date, time, and slot duration for your session.
Block out any windows where you're not available, so no slots are offered during those times.
{% hint style="info" %}
**Blocking a date doesn't cancel existing bookings.**
If attendees already booked a slot before you marked it unavailable, their booking stays active. You'll need to contact them directly to reschedule or cancel.
{% endhint %}
{% endstep %}
{% step %}
### Add screening questions
Customise the questions attendees answer at registration if you need more than just their name and contact details.
{% endstep %}
{% step %}
### Customise the confirmation email
Click **Email confirmation**. Edit the subject line, sender name, and the message attendees see once they've booked.
{% hint style="info" %}
You can also choose to include a copy of the attendee's form responses in the email, and preview exactly what they'll receive before saving.
{% endhint %}
{% endstep %}
{% step %}
### Share your event link
Before sharing your event link to the public, please ensure your event is Open. (See: [Managing your event](/creating-an-event/managing-your-event.md#general) on how to Open/Close your event)
Click on the black 'Share' button on the top right corner of your event
Click on the double square icon to copy the link to your event.
Click on the black new tab icon to open the event in a new tab.
{% endstep %}
{% endstepper %}
