# Publish an event

## Introduction

Now you've [setup your event](/events/setup-your-first-event.md), it's time to make it visible across the hub.&#x20;

Events can be listed in different places to help audiences discover them, including:&#x20;

* in event listings&#x20;
* alongside related content&#x20;
* on channels&#x20;

Let's go through each in turn.

## Event listings

An event listing is a calendar of events that have been created on a hub.&#x20;

Listings are an important destination for an audience to search, discover and engage with events on a hub.&#x20;

The following step-by-step guides show how to:

* show/hide an event in calendar listings
* configure how events appear in listings&#x20;
* manage redirects

### Show/hide an event in calendar listings

### Configure how events appear in listings

By default, the event summary is displayed in the listing. &#x20;

To show alternative text, listing variants can be used instead to customise what message is shown.&#x20;

### Redirect an event to another page or URL

It is possible to maintain a central calendar even when event information is hosted externally by setting up an event redirect.&#x20;

It is not necessary to follow these steps for events that are delivered on Zoom or ON24 via an integration.&#x20;

## Alongside related content

Events are just one of the content types that can be published.&#x20;

Adding terms to events is an effective way to organise them into categories, allowing for audiences to filter events within a listing and find events they require. &#x20;

Using a taxonomy to categorise the events is recommended for multi-event hubs. Read more about Publishing.&#x20;

### On Channel

Channels are landing pages that aggregate events and content around a particular theme. Learn more about Channels.&#x20;
