    I use Eventbrite only for free events and would like to integrate them into The Events Calendar. Do I have to purchase Eventbrite Tickets to accomplish this? To be clear, I don’t want to sell tickets using Eventbrite, only integrate free events. I use EDD and the Easy Digital Downloads Tickets (or now the new Event Tickets Plus) to charge for events with a cost.

    Hey Robert, and thanks for reaching out!

    Yes, you would need the Eventbrite Tickets add-on in order to import events from Eventbrite.com to WordPress and vice versa, even for free events in Eventbrite.

    Does this help answer your question? Please let me know. 🙂

    Cheers,
    Geoff

    Hi Geoff,

    Thanks for the reply. A couple of further questions:

    1. When you say “import events from Eventbrite.com” is that a manual process that has to be repeated whenever there’s a new event, or is it an integration that allows for automatic syncing.
    2. Not exclusively Eventbrite related, is there any way to sync with a Google Calendar?

    Thanks!

    Robert

    PS Somehow, while attempting to edit this post to fix a typo I click the “Correct Answer” button and now I don’t know how to deselect that.

    Hi Robert, thanks for following up!

    When you say “import events from Eventbrite.com” is that a manual process that has to be repeated whenever there’s a new event, or is it an integration that allows for automatic syncing.

    It is a process you would have to trigger manually. You would be able to look up events that exist in your Eventbrite account and import them into WordPress in bulk or by specific event using the Eventbrite ID for that event.

    Not exclusively Eventbrite related, is there any way to sync with a Google Calendar?

    Yes, absolutely! We have an add-on called iCal Importer which can pull events from Google Calendar into WordPress on a scheduled basis.

    Let me know if this helps answer your questions. 🙂
