Email blasts let you send a message directly to guests about your event. This is a great way to promote your event, share important updates, and provide more detailed information than a text blast.
This article explains how to send an email blast from your event dashboard and what you can include in your message.
What Is an Email Blast?
An email blast is a message sent to guests associated with your event by email. It can be used to:
Promote your event
Share event updates or announcements
Remind guests about the event date and time
Send arrival or check-in instructions
Communicate changes to the event
Email blasts are especially useful when you need more space to explain details or include richer content.
How to Send an Email Blast
To send an email blast for your event:
Open the event you want to promote
Go to the Event Dashboard
Select the Actions button
Choose Create Post
In the Send to section, toggle Email on
Create your message by adding:
A message body (the content of your email)
An optional photo or image
Review your message
Send the email blast
Once sent, your message will be delivered to eligible guests tied to your event.
What You Can Include in an Email Blast
Your email blast can include:
A text message
A photo or flyer
Event reminders or updates
Email is ideal for sharing longer messages such as schedules, lineups, or detailed instructions.
When Should I Use an Email Blast?
Email blasts work well for:
Promoting your event in advance
Sending detailed event information
Sharing lineup or schedule changes
Sending day-of-event instructions
Following up with guests after the event
Avoid sending too many emails so guests don’t feel overwhelmed.

Who Can Send Email Blasts?
