Editing event details for Zoom Events

After you publish an event for Zoom Events, you have the opportunity to edit that event. Event creators can edit drafts and upcoming events. This feature is useful because you can update your event so your attendees always have up-to-date information.

This enables event organizers to publish events with minimal but necessary content—to provide exposure to the event as early as possible—while providing time behind the scenes so the event can build over time with more added information.

Zoom Event details that can be edited after publishing

Notes:

• Hosts can update cloud recordings and live streaming settings after a ticket has been sold, after an event goes live, and during an event. Additionally, hosts can enable livestreaming and recording settings after a ticket has been sold for published events that have not taken place yet.
• After a single-session event, recurring series event, or multiple sessions event is published, the host can edit their event’s ticket details for any published event even if it already has registrants. The Quantity, Ticket Name, Description, Registration Starts/Ends fields are editable and will apply to future registration after they are updated. Additionally, hosts can add to or delete the guest list.
• You cannot change the Free or Paid type if the event has been published or if a ticket type has been created.

*For free multiple-session events and free single-session events, the event date and time can be changed regardless of the publishing status, ticket status, and payment status. Hosts can manually send an email notification to attendees with the latest time change. For paid multiple sessions events and paid single-session events, after a ticket is sold, these items cannot be changed.
