Inside 123 Tix - Why Start From Scratch?

14 July 2026

Terry's Take

No two events are ever exactly the same, but that doesn't mean you have to start with a blank canvas every single time. As soon as one event wraps up, most organisers are already quietly mapping out the details for the next one on the horizon.

If your previous event structure worked well, there's no reason to rebuild it from scratch. Reusing your established setup cuts down on manual administration, reduces the risk of minor data entry mistakes, and ensures consistency for your returning patrons.

Every hour you save behind your dashboard is another hour you can spend on-site, refining your marketing, or looking after your partners.

In Focus

Are you spending unnecessary hours building your recurring events from the ground up?

Setting up an event parameters page takes focused time, particularly when you are configuring the exact same ticket options, registration structures, and checkout conditions you used last month or last year.

When you look at a blank setup page, it's easy to accidentally miss a setting or mistype a term. By using Event Cloning, you can duplicate a successful previous event structure in a single interaction.

Whether you manage a recurring theatre performance, a monthly community market, an annual conference, or a multi-day sporting tournament, cloning allows you to pull forward your entire template instantly. Once cloned, you simply update the specific dates, times, and talent variations for the new edition. It turns event creation from a heavy administrative chore into a quick update, letting you get your tickets on sale while your audience's momentum is still fresh.

Clone Categories & Ticket Types

You don't have to replicate your entire event to save time on complex ticket logic. If you're simply adding a new day or an extra performance to an existing live event, you can clone specific ticket categories or pricing tiers instantly. This keeps your checkout flow consistent without requiring you to build individual ticket options one by one.

Session Sort Order

Schedules change, and sometimes your ticketing page needs to reflect those changes immediately.

The Session Sort Order tool allows you to manually rearrange the sequence of your sessions within a live, active environment. You can drag your headline sessions to the top or reorder days instantly without taking your page offline or breaking existing links.

Ticket Type Importing

We're currently developing Ticket Type Importing, a faster way to bring multiple ticket types into an event without setting each one up individually by hand. It's designed to help organisers running more complex ticket structures spend less time on manual setup and more time getting their event live. If bulk ticket setup is something that would make a difference to your events, we'd love to hear from you.

Terry's Toolbox

Your event image is often the very first thing people process before they read a single sentence.

When you're preparing to list an event, take a few extra minutes to select a sharp, high-quality hero image that truly captures the specific environment you're creating.

A clean, compelling visual does heavy work on social media timelines, email updates, and digital wallets. It prevents scrolling, cuts through online noise, and clearly signals to the buyer exactly what your experience is about before they even look at the price options.

First impressions don't just happen at the main gate... they start on the screen.

Did You Know?

Did you know you can add dedicated team members to your organiser account without sharing your master login details?

You don't have to carry the entire administrative load yourself. The platform allows you to invite staff, volunteers, or accountants to your account, assigning specific access levels so they can assist with setup, monitor live sales, or run gate reports safely.

One Action. One Click. One Improvement.
