Create the Luma Event

Publishing a PyLadies Vancouver event on Luma.

We publish each event on Luma, which handles RSVPs, reminders, and a subscribable calendar. Build the description from the confirmed Sessionize talk and speaker details.

Use the Luma Event Template as your starting point.

Tips  

• Luma’s API requires a paid Luma Plus plan, so on the free tier we create events through the web editor. Luma supports Markdown, so the template pastes in directly.
• Luma supports only two heading levels (# and ##) — keep the description to those.
• Add the speaker photo(s) from Sessionize as the event/cover image.
• Double-check the date, start/end time (leave room for cleanup), location, and capacity.

Once published, the event automatically appears on our Events Page and homepage, which embed the Luma calendar.
