Main Events help you group related events under one banner, making it easier to manage complex schedules across dates, branches, or locations.
What are Main Events?
A Main Event is a calendar banner that groups several related events together, so admins can quickly understand which events belong to the same operation.
Use Main Events to organize multi-day operations, large events with setup and teardown shifts, or schedules across several branches. You can create a Main Event for a specific date or date range, choose which branches it should appear in, create related branch events from templates, attach existing events, and view connected events from the calendar and Live View.
Each event can only be connected to one Main Event at a time.
Where Main Events appear

Best practices
Use clear Main Event names so admins can quickly understand what the grouped events are related to.
Choose the relevant branches when creating the Main Event, so it appears in the right places on the calendar.
Use branch templates when creating related events across several branches to save time and keep the setup consistent.
Attach only events that are truly part of the same operation, since each event can only belong to one Main Event.
Main Events help you keep large calendars cleaner, organize related work across branches, and quickly understand which events belong together.
