Host a workshop, a launch or a get-together as your business. Your event shows on Zinola's Events page, on your business page, and to neighbors nearby.

  1. Open Events

    On the website, open your business and choose the Events tab. In the app, go to More › Events.
  2. Tap New event

    The event form opens.
  3. Name it and pick a category

    Event name takes 3 to 120 characters. Then pick a category chip.
  4. Set the time

    The start can't be in the past. On the website, fill in Starts (India time) and, if you like, Ends (optional). In the app, pick a day and a time under When (India time), then a length, or No end time.
  5. Say where

    Add the Venue, such as “Our studio, 2nd floor”, and pick the Area.
  6. Describe it

    Use About for what will happen, what to bring and who it's for.
  7. Add the extras

    Set the price, who it's Good for, a head count and a cover photo. See below.
  8. Tap Post event

    You'll see “Your event is up on Zinola.” on the website.

The optional details

  • Price: Free or Paid. For a paid event, add the amount in ₹ (up to ₹10,00,000) and an optional note, such as “Includes materials”. Zinola doesn't take payments for events, so tell guests how to pay you.
  • Good for: any of Kids, Families, Adults and Seniors.
  • How many people? (optional): from 2 up to 1,00,000.
  • Cover photo: tap Add a cover photo. A clear, wide photo works best. See the size below.

Best photo size

Size
Best1920 × 1080 pixels, landscape (16:9)
Smallest that still looks sharp1200 × 675 pixels

The cover is cut to a different shape on each screen: the event page on zinola.in trims the top and bottom, the app trims the left and right, and a shared link shows a tall slice from the middle. Put faces, your logo and any text in the centre and they stay in every version. More in Best photo sizes for your page.

Hidden while we check it

Now and then an event is held back for a quick check before it shows. It's marked Hidden while we check it on the website, or IN REVIEW in the app. You don't need to do anything. It appears once it's checked.

After posting

Your events tab lists Upcoming and Past events. On the website, each row shows how many are going, maybe or can't go, and how many questions there are. Tap View on Zinola to see the event as neighbors do.

Next: See who's coming, Answer questions about an event and Edit or cancel an event.
