Transferring event ownership

Atualizado a 2 nov. 2026

Transferring event ownership

You can hand over an event to another Cloomba user. This is useful when:

  • You're stepping back from a series and a co-host is taking over.
  • The event moves to a different organization.
  • You created the event under the wrong account and want to move it.

How to start a transfer

  1. Open the event you want to transfer and choose Manage › Advanced.
  2. In the Danger zone, select Transfer event.
  3. Enter the username of the new owner.
  4. Send the request.

The recipient sees a notification and gets an email with a review link. They have 7 days to accept; otherwise the request expires.

An event on your personal calendar is yours to transfer. An event in a community is transferred by the community's owners — to anyone, the person who created it included.

What happens when accepted

  • The new owner becomes the organizer.
  • The previous organizer stays attached as an admin — they keep edit access but ownership has moved.
  • All RSVPs, tickets, media, and comments stay where they are. Nothing is lost or duplicated.
  • The event slug and URL don't change.
  • The event moves to the new owner's personal calendar, from a personal calendar or from a community.

What happens when declined or cancelled

  • Declined by the recipient — the request closes; nothing changes.
  • Cancelled by you — the recipient's pending notification is cleared.
  • Expired after 7 days — closed automatically.

Restrictions

You can't transfer an event that is upcoming and has paid tickets, so that no sale lands on the wrong payment account during the handover. Either wait until the event has passed, or switch the event to free first.

You also can't transfer to someone who has blocked you, or whom you have blocked.

Co-organizers vs transfer

If you just want to share management, add a co-host instead — that grants edit access without changing ownership. See Adding co-hosts and managers.
