Event: what each field is for

This page lists every field of the form for an event, in the order the form shows them, what each field takes and what it is for. A field marked as mandatory is needed before the entry can go live; every other field is optional, and a field you leave empty is simply not shown on the page. You can save a draft at any time and come back to it.
