How to create Events?

Updated 

Events can be programs launched by the brand which are promoted as a part of a brand's marketing activities. Events are usually time-bound, and there can be multiple promotional sub-campaigns to cater to a series of events that together form a larger Marketing Campaign. For example, the events associated with the Olympics can be the Opening Ceremony, Qualifier and Eliminator rounds for different Sports, and the Closing Ceremony. 

You can associate events with Campaigns and Sub-Campaigns. The associated events are visible in the Overview and Editorial Calendar tabs of the respective Campaigns and Sub-Campaigns.
