I am t a total loss, I have a client who we worked on many years back, and have been playing around with the Event setup, however I can not work out why I can’t set up 1 event which lasts for 10 days, so in theory
1. I can set this event up, using the from and to dates, however there are no options to exclude weekends
2. Looking through the knowledge-base, I can see that I can set up a recurring event that occurs each day for 10 days, but excludes weekends, which is great, however!!!!! The course is then split into 10 different events, that can be booked
I hope I am wrong, I am looking at the PRO verson of both, but I can’t believe we can’t do something as simple as a 10 days event but it excludes certain days of the week
Hi Neil,
Thanks so much for reaching out!
With Events Calendar PRO, the best way to achieve this would be to use the first day of the event as the Start Date and then schedule multiple events for each following day.
From there, you can opt to exclude the weekend dates that are not included.
In general, recurring events are not supported by Event Tickets, which may be why you are seeing an issue there.
We’d love for you to vote on this idea in our feature request, as we do take customer feedback into consideration when implementing new features:
If you have any further questions on this issue, please post in our premium forums with your license or post over on WordPress.org for any The Events Calendar related questions.
Let me know how it goes and if you have any other questions in the meantime!
Thanks,

Hi, must admit the event system is great, but scary at just how it misses very simple and standard requirements, so we can’t sell tickets to an event which runs for 10 days but excludes certain days
Reoccurring events as I see them means you can buy a ticket on any day, I must not be technical enough to understand how this isn’t standard, how would any one sell an event which lasts more than 1 day
Hi Neil,
I’m sorry to hear that you are disappointed with the way that things are set up.
You can still create a 10-day event with exclusions if you use a recurrence rule, as I had previously mentioned. You can sell the ticket on the first day, and try hide the tickets for each subsequent day on the front-end.
Let me know if you have any other questions on this topic!
Thanks,
Jaime
Hey there! This thread has been pretty quiet for the last three weeks, so we’re going to go ahead and close it to avoid confusion with other topics.
