01
Use an Org Profile
Hosting your event with an Org Profile lets your guests see all past and upcoming events. We recommend this for brands, groups, and venues.
To make an Org Profile, go to your personal profile → tap your profile name → select Create a new profile → add your org name, bio, and social media handles.
If hosting with your personal profile, we recommend adding your social media handles and a bio. The more information guests have, the more they’ll trust your event.

What is the Partiful Explore page?
The Partiful Explore page is a curated feed of the best public events happening near you. Users can browse concerts, club nights, watch parties, run clubs, supper clubs, community meetups, and more, all hosted by real people, brands, and organizations. Explore surfaces the best events happening on Partiful in your city: live music and DJ sets, brand activations and pop-ups, sports watch parties, singles mixers, niche community meetups, fitness clubs, dinner parties, and one-off cultural moments. Both free and ticketed events appear, and many are hosted by recurring organizers with Org Profiles you can follow to catch their next event. If you’re building a campus or community presence, Partiful also supports student org profiles and an org directory for discovery beyond a single event.
How do I get featured on the Partiful Explore page?
If you’re a host, getting on Explore starts with making your event public: go to Event Settings → Audience and switch your event to Public, then toggle on “Submit to be featured.” From there, a few best practices improve your odds of being featured: use a clear, visually engaging poster with minimal text; manage recurring events through an Org Profile with a complete bio and socials; upload photos of your venue or past events; keep your guest list and guest count visible; and write a concise event title that communicates exactly what your event is about. If you’re starting from scratch, create an event first, then make it public when you’re ready to submit.
Why should I use Partiful to host my event?
Partiful is the easiest way to plan social events, from birthday parties to concerts. Going from idea to invite takes less than a minute. Easily create an event on Partiful, no app needed. Pick a theme, then customize with colors, fonts, and fun animations to match the vibe of your party. Add your date, location, start time, and anything else guests need to know. If you’re charging admission, use Partiful’s ticketing or sell tickets tools, then send your invite by text, link, or email. Guests can RSVP from any browser, no app download required. You can find Explore in the Partiful app or on the web. For musicians, brands, clubs, event series, hosts, and community organizers, Explore is a distribution channel. Getting featured puts your event in front of people actively looking for plans in your city — not just your existing followers. Combined with Partiful’s ticketing, Org Profiles, and the Partiful app, Explore can turn a one-off event into a recurring audience.
