Adding Agenda Items to Your Event Schedule

Written by Jerica

Agenda items let you add non-talk moments to your public schedule, such as coffee breaks, doors opening, networking time, meals, or schedule notes. They appear alongside talks in chronological order so attendees can understand the full shape of the event day.

Add an agenda item

  1. Go to Content > Talks.

  2. Select Add Agenda Item.

  3. Choose the Agenda Item Type: Break, Time Marker, or Schedule Note.

  4. Add the title, date, and time.

  5. Choose whether the agenda item has a duration. If it does, enter the duration in minutes.

  6. Optionally add a description.

  7. Save the agenda item.


Choose whether attendees can open it

An agenda item can be schedule-only, or it can link somewhere attendees can open for more details.

  • Use Include a dedicated page? if the agenda item should have its own page on your event site.

  • Use External URL if the agenda item should link somewhere else instead of a dedicated page. The URL must be either a relative URL starting with / or an absolute HTTPS URL.

  • If you do not need a dedicated page or external URL, attendees will simply see the agenda item in the schedule.


Optional stage and media settings

If your event uses stages, you can link an agenda item to a stage. This helps the schedule show agenda items alongside talks that are happening in parallel.

You can also add promo images, media, or handouts to an agenda item when those assets help attendees understand what the item is for.

How agenda items behave

Agenda items are part of the schedule, but they are not treated as normal talks for attendee registration, speaker workflows, or talk reminder emails. Use them for schedule structure and context, not for sessions attendees need to register for as talks.
