Create a Community

Running a community? Learn how to create a community on Beatmatch for simplified community management and growth.

Updated over a week ago

A community on Beatmatch lets you organize events under a shared identity instead of a single personal profile. Communities are ideal for party series, collectives, brands, or groups that host events regularly and want fans to follow them in one place.

This article explains what a community is, when to use one, and how to create it.


What Is a Community?

A community is a profile that represents a group, brand, or recurring event series rather than an individual person.

Communities can be used to:

  • Host events under a shared name

  • Build a following around a series or brand

  • Keep all related events in one place

  • Allow multiple people to help manage and promote events

Fans can follow a community to stay up to date on future events and announcements from that group.


When Should I Create a Community?

Creating a community is a good idea if:

  • You run recurring events or a series

  • You host events as a group rather than just as an individual

  • You want fans to recognize and follow a brand or name

  • More than one person helps manage or promote events

If you only host one-off or personal events, using your main profile may be sufficient.


How to Create a Community

To create a community on Beatmatch:

  1. Open the Beatmatch app or visit beatmatch.app

  2. Go to your Profile

  3. Select Create Community

  4. Enter your community’s details:

    • Community name

    • Username

    • Description

    • Profile image or logo

    • Hashtags and genres

  5. Review your information and save

Once created, your community will appear as a profile you can switch into when creating or managing events.


Using a Community to Host Events

After creating a community, you can use it to host events:

  • Switch to your community profile

  • Create a new event while using that profile

  • The community will appear as the event host

  • Fans can follow the community to discover future events

This helps keep all of your events grouped under one identity and makes it easier for fans to recognize and return to your events.


Managing a Community

Community creators can:

  • Edit the community profile

  • Create and manage events for the community

  • Add collaborators or co-hosts to events hosted by the community

  • Share and promote events

If multiple people manage the community, each person uses their own Beatmatch profile rather than sharing one account.


Can I Change an Existing Event to Use a Community?

Yes. If an event was created under the wrong profile, you can:

  • Transfer the event to your community profile, or

  • Add your community as a co-host

This allows you to correct which profile is hosting the event even after it has been published.


Tips for Successful Communities

  • Use a clear and recognizable name

  • Add a short description explaining what your community hosts

  • Upload a logo or image that matches your brand

  • Keep your events consistent so fans know what to expect

  • Encourage attendees to follow your community after each event

  • Leverage built-in SMS & email tools to engage your community regularly

  • Use relevant hashtags and genres to attract new members
