Hello,<\/p>\n

I am trying to extract categories associated to events with tribe_get_event_categories like this:<\/p>\n

$event_id = get_the_ID();
\nprint_r (tribe_get_event_categories($event_id)) ;<\/p>\n

doing so I get :
\n“Events Category:
\n . Myfirsteventscategorie
\n. Mysecondevntcategorie”<\/p>\n

but as I would like only the first one
\ni was trying with :<\/p>\n

$event_id = get_the_ID();
\n$myCat = (tribe_get_event_categories($event_id)) ;
\necho $myCat [0]->name;<\/p>\n

but it doesn’t work. Does it means that tribe_get_event_categories do not return an array ? Please, any help ?
