When creating a new event you will have the option to add your ticket prices, import a pricing group template, or select a free event.
Ticket prices entered upon Create New Event will then be defined within the Default Pricing Group.
Add new or edit existing Ticket Types
Ticket types are located within your event's Pricing Group/s.
A Pricing Group allows you to define your ticket prices, ticket style and promotion (discount) codes, and link them to a particular Session or Section within your event.
Most events will utilise the one pricing group, that contains all ticket types and promotions for the event. This is often seen as the Default Pricing Group.
To add new or edit ticket types to your event:
From the left menu, click Dashboard
From the Manage events overview, click on your event
From the left menu, click Pricing groups (ticket prices), under Ticketing
Click on the name of the pricing group you want to edit (usually called the Default Pricing Group, unless you have renamed it)
Once in your pricing group, you will see the Ticket Types listed for your event
To EDIT an existing Ticket Type: Click on the name of the ticket you wish to edit
To Add a new Ticket Type: Click on Add Ticket Type

From the left menu, click Dashboard
From the Manage events overview, click on your event
From the left menu, click Pricing groups (ticket prices), under Ticketing
Click Add pricing group
Give the group a name and click OK
Add relevant tickets types, promotion codes and assigned ticket styles
In order for this new Pricing Group to take effect, you will need to assign it to a session and/or section under Pricing Schema.

If you have only one ticket option per section or session, it may be easier for your patrons to use ticket prices with Headers and setting Ticket Capacity, especially if you expect them to need to select multiple options in one purchase. This allows patrons to select everything that is required on the one page, rather than moving to the shopping cart and continue booking to complete their transaction.
