# Reschedule an Event

If you need to move a published event to a new date, use the Reschedule Event option to update event dates, session times, and registration deadlines in one place, then notify registrants of the change.

{% hint style="info" %}
**TIP:** Use Reschedule for an event that is still happening but at a new date or time. To cancel an event entirely, use the existing cancel workflow instead.
{% endhint %}

## Reschedule a Published Event

{% stepper %}
{% step %}

#### Open the Event

Navigate to the event you want to reschedule and open its detail view.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}

#### Click Reschedule Event

Click the **More** button on the event detail view and select **Reschedule Event** from the menu.

{% hint style="warning" %}
**NOTE:** The **Reschedule Event** option is only available for published events and only to users with editable permission for that event.
{% endhint %}
{% endstep %}

{% step %}

#### Adjust the Dates

In the Reschedule modal, update any of the following:

* **Start Date & End Date** -- The new event start and end dates.
* **Session dates** -- Dates for each existing session. You can change dates for sessions that already exist, but you cannot add or remove sessions from this modal.
* **Registration type deadlines** -- The cutoff date for each registration type.
* **Promo code expiration** -- The end date for any active promo codes.
  {% endstep %}

{% step %}

#### Confirm the Changes

After adjusting the dates, a confirmation dialog summarizes:

* The list of dates and details being changed.
* The option to email all registrants about the change, along with the number of registrants who will be notified.

Check the email option if you want PEARS to send a notification to registrants, then click **Confirm** to apply the reschedule.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}

#### Registrants Are Notified (optional)

If you opted to email registrants, PEARS sends each one a notification informing them of the date change. The event itself is flagged as **Rescheduled** so the new status appears in the events list, filters, and exports.
{% endstep %}
{% endstepper %}

## Filter Rescheduled Events

On the Community Events list view, use the **Status** filter to find events that have been rescheduled. Rescheduled events remain visible in their existing categories and are also flagged with a rescheduled status for tracking and follow-up.
