Schedule Your Events Early

The earlier you schedule your events, the more time your community has to discover your events and get tickets.

Share Your School's Page With Your Community

Your school's GoFan page is the go-to spot for your community to find all event information and buy tickets. Make sure your fans know where to find it! Just search for your school on the GoFan homepage, copy the URL, and share it. You can also find your school link on your PlayOn HQ dashboard.

Each event has its own landing page with specific links and QR codes available in PlayOn HQ. By sharing these links, you make it easy for your community to buy tickets. It's quick, simple, and keeps everyone connected!
