Events

Reign + The Events Calendar. Events integration.

The Events Calendar (by Tribe) is the most-deployed WordPress events plugin. Calendar views, RSVPs, ticketing.

Reign + The Events Calendar for community events: weekly Zoom calls, in-person meetups, workshops, virtual conferences.

The free alternative from us

Eventonomy does the same job in-house and installs free: Event listings, calendars, and free RSVPs. On the paid plan: paid tickets, recurring events, check-in, and attendee management. Reign styles it with no add-on, and The Events Calendar stays fully supported either way.

How it works with Reign.

Reign ships a dedicated Events Calendar stylesheet, so the calendar, list and single-event views are styled to the theme rather than arriving in the plugin's defaults. The Events Calendar has a lot of views and a lot of markup, so this is real work rather than a colour pass. Its premium add-ons introduce further templates that the theme cannot anticipate, so check anything beyond the core views on staging before you rely on it.

When to use it.

Use The Events Calendar when you need its maturity: recurring events, venues, organisers and a long tail of add-ons. Our own Eventonomy covers listings, calendars and RSVPs, installs free, and keeps the attendee in the same member record as the rest of your community, which matters when events are part of a membership rather than a separate thing.

4 steps to ship.

1

Install The Events Calendar (free) + Event Tickets (free).

2

Add events with date, location, description.

3

Event Tickets Plus ($99/yr) for paid ticketing via WooCommerce.

4

Pair with BuddyPress groups - per-group calendars via Pro add-on.

What to check once it is live.

Publish one event and view it in calendar, list and single view, then check all three on a phone. Confirm the timezone is right, because that is the single most common error and it is invisible until someone turns up an hour late. If you use recurring events, create one and check the whole series.

The Events Calendar integration questions.

Per-group calendars for community events?

Yes via Events Calendar Pro + BuddyPress integration. Each BP group can have its own calendar.

Where does Eventonomy fit?

Eventonomy is our own events plugin: listings, calendars and free RSVPs at no cost, with paid tickets, recurring events and check-in on Pro. It needs no styling add-on. The Events Calendar stays the pick for sites already invested in its add-on ecosystem.

Does Reign style the calendar views?

Yes. The theme ships a dedicated Events Calendar stylesheet covering the calendar, list and single-event views. Premium add-ons bring their own templates, so test those separately rather than assuming coverage extends to everything in the range.

Eventonomy or The Events Calendar?

Eventonomy if events are part of your community and you want RSVPs tied to member records, free to install. The Events Calendar if you need recurring events, venue and organiser management, or a specific add-on from its ecosystem. Reign styles both.

Do I need the premium add-ons?

Only for specific features: recurring events, ticketing and a few view types sit behind the licence. The free plugin covers a basic calendar and single events. Work out which of those you genuinely need before buying, because Eventonomy covers listings, calendars and RSVPs free and may already be enough.

Pick a bundled kit.

The Reign theme is $99/year or $249 lifetime and it is the only required purchase. Kits bundle it with the add-ons that style a third-party stack. Or skip the third-party stack: Eventonomy is ours and installs free.
