(Facebook Launches New Tool for Event Planning)
MENLO PARK, Calif. – Facebook today launched a new event planning tool. This feature helps users organize gatherings easily. It is available now for all Facebook members.
The tool lets people create events quickly. Users pick dates and locations. They invite friends directly through Facebook. Friends receive notifications instantly. They can confirm attendance or suggest new times.
Facebook noticed events are central to social connections. Many users plan meetups on the platform. The company built this tool to simplify the process. Everything happens in one place. No extra apps are needed.
Creating an event takes three steps. First, open the Events tab. Next, fill in event details like name and time. Then select guests from your friend list. The event appears automatically on invitees’ calendars.
The tool includes useful extras. It proposes dates when most friends are free. It helps split costs for group expenses like gifts or food. Users can also add polls to decide activities.
“We listened to users who wanted smoother event planning,” said Jane Smith, Facebook’s product lead. “This tool saves time. People focus more on fun and less on logistics.”
Privacy settings stay flexible. Event creators control visibility. Details are only shared with invited guests. Facebook confirms no third parties access event data.
The feature works on phones and computers. It syncs with other calendars like Google Calendar. Facebook tested it for months with small user groups. Feedback guided final tweaks.
