# Overview

> Create and sell tickets for tastings, tours and events

Events let you sell tickets to tastings, tours, workshops, classes and courses.

An event can be a **one-off** or **recurring**. Recurring events create **occurrences**: individual dated instances that customers book onto.

### At a glance

* **Tickets** - customers buy tickets to an event, and receive a ticket email
* **Capacity** - the quantity of tickets available for an event
* **Deposits** - take a deposit rather than the full price upfront, with the balance falling due later
* **Waitlist** - capture demand once tickets sell out
* **Check-in** - check attendees in at the door by scanning the QR code on their ticket

## Events

To view your events:

1. Log in to your Marzipan account
2. Click on **Events** in the main navigation menu
3. The list displays your events, with one row per occurrence for recurring events

</Frame>

Each row shows:

* A **recurring badge** for recurring events
* The **next date**
* **Tickets sold** out of the total
* **Sold-out** or **waitlist** indicators

Click on any event in the list to view its [event details](/events/details).

### Filtering and sorting

You can filter and sort the list:

* Filter by **Status** - Upcoming, Past or Cancelled
* Filter by **Event type**
* Filter by **Recurrence**
* Filter by **Availability**
* Sort by **date** or **tickets sold**

### Event Insights

For reporting on attendance, revenue and demand, use **Event Insights**. See [Insights](/insights/overview) for more.
