# Setting up Events on Members Portal 5

Before you publish events and tickets on the Members Portal, you'll need to enable the Events section and define your access and event ticket settings.

Migrating from Version 4?

We recommend treating these steps as an **audit** for your space. You can also make sure you're taking advantage of all the **new features** added in Version 5

## Enabling the Events Section

You can easily enable the Events section from the Admin Panel. Simply go to [**Settings > Website > Features**](https://dashboard.nexudus.com/settings/2/0/3) and toggle on **Enable the events and tickets section**.

Once you've enabled the Events section, you'll need to define its access settings.

## Defining Access Settings

You can define which customer groups have access to the Events section under [**Settings > Website > Access**](https://dashboard.nexudus.com/settings/2/0/4) on the Admin Panel.

You can restrict the Events section to the following customer groups:

- Public
- Logged In Users
- Members Only
- Contacts Only

Making your Events section visible to the public?

You'll need to enable [guest checkout](/v3/docs/guest-checkout-on-members-portal-5) if you want customers to be able to purchase event tickets without creating an account.

The next step is to configure your event ticket settings.

## Configuring Event Ticket Settings

If you want to publish event tickets on the Members Portal, you'll need to define your event ticket settings. This includes important settings such as **whether customers can cancel tickets**.

For more information, check out [Event Ticket Settings](/v3/docs/event-ticket-settings).

Once you've defined your event ticket settings, you're ready to publish events and tickets on the Members Portal.

## Publishing Events and Tickets

Events aren't visible on the Members Portal by default, but you can easily [publish them](/v3/docs/publishing-events) from the Admin Panel.

If you want customers to be able to RSVP, you'll also need to [create and publish tickets](/v3/docs/adding-event-tickets) for each event.

Once you've published tickets for your events, customers can [purchase](/v3/docs/purchasing-event-tickets) and [manage](/v3/docs/managing-event-tickets-on-members-portal-5) them from the Members Portal.
