# Step 2: Create Your Event

> Create an event in SimpleTix, pick the right event type, and dive into setup with a quick reference to GA, Flex Pass, and Reserved Seating.

After verifying your account, it's time to create your first event!

## 1. Pick the Right Event Type

SimpleTix supports **three main event types**: Flex Pass, General Admission, and Reserved Seating. Each has unique benefits, so be sure to review them before finalizing.

### Quick Summary

> For a more detailed breakdown, see [Choosing the Right Event Type](/docs/events/choosing-event-type).

* **General Admission (GA)**
  * The workhorse event type - unless you know otherwise, you probably want to create a General Admission event
  * Supports single times and multiple times
  * Suitable for events that don’t need seat selection (concerts, timed entries)
  * Supports capacity limits, recurring timeslots, or season tickets
  * Also supports Virtual / Online Events with no set Venue. Perfect for webinars or anything not happening in the physical world.

* **Reserved Seating (RS)**
  * Patrons select specific seats from a chart
  * Great for theaters, stadiums, or multi-date seat subscriptions (season tickets with assigned seats)
  * Added complexity of managing exact seat assignments

* **Flex Pass**
  * Ideal for come-and-go or unlimited re-entry (e.g., farm passes, festivals)
  * Multi-scan tickets, no seat assignments
  * Not associated with any start or end time
