Creating a Private Facebook Event

Click For Summary
SUMMARY

Creating a private Facebook event from a Facebook Page is not directly supported; events created from Pages are public by default. Users must create a private event from their personal Facebook account to ensure privacy. An alternative solution is to create a private Facebook Group, which can be deleted after the event, allowing for controlled access and privacy for hosts. This method prevents sensitive information, such as addresses, from being publicly visible.

I finally figured out how to create a FB event from my Page but my host is concered it is "public"not "private" event. Is there a way I can create a Private event from my page or do I have to do this from my person FB account?
 
I think only the people she invites can see it...not positive. You can create a group and its private...then you could delete the group after the show.

I've check and because it is public it is allowing everyone to see her address and join the event.
I would like to utilize my Fan page to create events for my shows but I don’t want my host to feel uncomfortable their information is showing publicly.

I have seen other consultants offer FACEBOOK Shows but how do I do this and protect the host privacy?

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a private Facebook event?

A private Facebook event is a gathering that can be created on the platform where only invited guests can see the event details, including the guest list and any posts made within the event. This ensures that the event remains exclusive to those who have been invited.
