When setting up or editing an event, you can create a new event category or attach the event to a current category. To find this setting, go to your main **Events** tab, and next to the event's title, click **More** --> **Settings**. (For a new event, click **+Add Event**)

Scroll to the bottom of the page and click **Additional Options**. Then, scroll down the section titled "Event Categories".

If you have existing categories, select which one(s) you'd like to attach this event to from the drop-down menu. To add a new category, click **Manage Categories**. Click **Save Settings** to complete.
