Running your Event (Event Hub)

Bulk-import or edit your agenda

Last updated: September 2026 · ~5 min read
In short: Set up, or mass-edit, your whole programme at once with the agenda spreadsheet template. Ideal for large, multi-track events where session-by-session entry would take too long.

Before you start

Bulk import is the fastest way to set up, or mass-edit, a large, multi-track programme. You’ll need a role that can manage the event and your session list ready. If you’re also importing people, see Import attendees, speakers & sponsors in bulk.

Steps

  1. Open the Schedule and choose Import

    In the Event Hub, open Schedule and click Import in the top right.

  2. Download the agenda template

    The template has a column for each field: session title, day, start, end, track, room, speaker(s), description, and a parent column for sub-sessions.

    The agenda spreadsheet template with one row per session.
  3. Fill it in

    Add one row per session. To nest a sub-session, put its parent’s title in the parent column. Match speaker names or emails to speakers you’ve already imported so they link up automatically.

  4. Upload and map the columns

    Upload your file; Eventira auto-matches the columns. Fix anything marked Unmapped before continuing.

  5. Review, resolve clashes, and confirm

    Eventira previews the agenda and flags time clashes (same room, overlapping times) and unknown speakers or rooms. Resolve them, then import.

    Tip: To mass-edit an existing programme, export the current agenda, change it in the spreadsheet, and import again, Eventira updates matching sessions instead of duplicating them.
