Sending Email Blasts to Attendees

This guide covers how to send targeted email communications to your event attendees, whether for promotional offers, important updates, or post-event surveys.

Email blast functionality is not available for free events without a connected payment processor. To use this feature for free events, please connect a payment processor to your account first.

If you are sending an email about event cancellation, please use the dedicated event cancellation workflow instead of a regular email blast. This ensures proper refund processing and ticket handling. See our Complete Guide to Cancelling Your Event for detailed instructions.
