If you don’t see the “Events” link, simply start typing the word “events” into the search bar at the top of the screen pre-filled with the text “Search for people, places, and things. " An entry labeled “Events” with the subtitle “App” should appear in a drop-down menu beneath the search bar - click it.

You can also choose to set the event as private or public depending on what people you want to show up.

The top of the list is, in theory, populated with the people you’re closest to (family members, close friends, significant others, etc. ) If you don’t see the name of someone you want to invite, simply scroll down or type his or her name into the search bar at the top of the friends list to search for him or her.

Add a photo. Your event page will be more visually appealing to your guests if you add a photo for the event. Simply click the large “Add Event Photo” button at the top of the page, then choose to either upload a photo from your computer’s hard drive or pick one of your photos on Facebook. Edit the event’s info. Click the gray “edit” button marked with a pencil to change your event’s name, description, time, or location. Here, you can also assign other hosts to the event. Hosts can edit the event’s info, invite people to the event, and add other hosts, just like you. Invite more friends. If you remember someone else you want to invite, don’t worry - just click the gray “Invite Friends” button near the top of the screen marked with an envelope. You’ll be presented with a list of your friends again - simply check their names, as before.

Edit Hosts: Add or remove hosts for your event. Message Guests: Send your guests Facebook messages. Useful for notifying everyone of a change of location, for instance. Create Repeat Event. Automatically create a separate copy of your original event. New event retains invite list, description, title, etc. Useful if you plan to meet multiple times (e. g. book clubs, etc. ) Cancel Event. Delete the event page. This automatically sends a notification to your guests. Turn Off Notifications. Disables notifications from this event - you won’t see anything about it in your feed, etc. Export Event. Send your event to your calendar or to an email address. Promote Event. Review options for buying advertising space on Facebook.

Alternatively, type the word “Events” into the search bar at the top of the screen. A link to your Events page should appear near the top of the list.

Don’t navigate away from the popup invitation menu during this step - otherwise, you’ll have to re-open it and scroll to the bottom again.

If you want to invite most of your friends, but not all of your friends, this method is still useful - simply follow the method as normal, then, when all of your friends are highlighted, manually un-invite the friends that you don’t want to receive an invitation. This is still more time-efficient than manually selecting your invites.
