The following article outlines how to make a copy of an event on a new date.
Overview
Arlo's template to event structure means you don't have to recreate all of the event information when you run the same event again, and allows your website users to see all dates of an event on one website template page:
If the event contact changes over time, no worries, you can update the shared settings on the template as you go. If however it is actually a different event altogether, you would create a new template (and website template page) instead:
Arlo allows you to copy an event including any sessions and options when scheduling a new one, so that you do not have to manually load sessions and/or options each time. Arlo will copy across the session names, presenter, running times, descriptions, and other session-related information to the new event, as well as any options and allow you to confirm the new date(s) for the event.
