Bulk Importing Events into ClubSoft

ClubSoft makes it easy to create multiple events at once using our bulk event import feature. This is especially helpful when setting up your annual calendar, importing regattas, recurring meetings, or migrating events from another system.

Who Can Bulk Import Events?

Bulk event imports are available to:

  • Site Admin
  • Event Manager

If you do not see the bulk import option, contact your Site Administrator for access.


When to Use Bulk Event Import

Bulk importing is ideal for:

  • Annual event calendars
  • Recurring board meetings
  • Social events
  • Regattas and races
  • Committee meetings
  • Migrating events from spreadsheets or another platform

For one-off events, we recommend creating them manually inside the Events section.
