Change your event capacity
Your event capacity is the total number of tickets available for your event. Reducing your event capacity can ensure you don't oversell your event, especially if you have multiple ticket types. Increasing your event capacity allows you to sell more tickets. To update your event capacity, go to your event dashboard and select Tickets.

Before you start
Each ticket type has an Available quantity, or the number of times that specific ticket type can be sold.
Each event has an Event capacity. This is the total number of tickets that can be sold for that event across ticket types.
If your event is a recurring event, these settings apply to all instances of your event. It's not possible to change the ticket settings for a specific instance without changing the others.
If your event is a reserved seating event, your event capacity is the number of seats in your seating map.
Changing the available quantity of tickets
Updating the available quantity lets you sell more or fewer tickets. Even if you increase the available quantity of your ticket types, your event won't sell more tickets than your event capacity.

2. Go to “Tickets."
3. Select your ticket type.
4. Enter your new quantity (under “Available quantity).
