Examples of multi-day events are a weekend festival that you want to treat as one event, or an art exhibit that is on display for a set period of time. Multi-day events only have start dates and end dates; they do not include a start and end times. If you want to include start and end times for each day the event is happening, go to [Adding a recurring event](/footlight-cms-guide/events-workspace/adding-and-editing-events/adding-a-recurring-event.md). **Tip:** A link to the opening hours of a gallery or venue can be included with the location (in Places) and displayed with the published event. This helps ensure that event date-and-time details are always up to date and in sync with the original source of the event. **To add a single event that spans a date range of several days, weeks or months:** 1. In the Event editor, click Date range.

2. In the Date range field, select a start date and end date for the event.

3. Because multi-day events are single events that span a date range, they do not include start and end times. If you prefer to create a repeating event, with multiple dates and times, add a [recurring event](/footlight-cms-guide/events-workspace/adding-and-editing-events/adding-a-recurring-event.md) instead.

**Note:** Event status is automatically scheduled. You only need to change it if your event is postponed or canceled.

**Note:** Admins can include a link to the opening hours with the event location. If a link to opening hours are included, it is displayed with the event location details.

3. Finish adding the event details and then click **Save as draft**, **Publish** or **Send for review**.
