Managed Events
A bespoke tool to help organisers with managed events and registrations.
Coming soon
We are running a series of beta tests with some voluntary organisers to fine-tune the tool. As soon as it is ready we will release it for everyone to use. In the meantime, if you are an event organiser and would like to participate in the beta testing please pop a message to Rita via tango@tangofolly.com.
Managed events
Managed events are normal events on Tangofolly with additional functionality to allow members to register.
As the organiser, you can then manage the registration process quickly and easily, maintain consistent communications with your registrants, request and receive payment, invite previous registrants to register for your next event, get a financial report for each event and quickly download an array of useful lists.
You have full control of everything every step of the way.
The registration process
Essentially, when a member registers for your event you have the choice to add them to your shortlist and invite them to make payment, add them to your waiting list or decline their registration. Here’s how:

A note from the webmaster
I first had this idea for an event management tool two years ago. As an avid marathon dancer I saw how organisers work SO impressively hard to manage the very bespoke events we social dancers love so much. Sometimes information is lost, registrations get mixed up, messages go everywhere and yes… the spreadsheets… So… Working together with a marathon organiser team I built the prototype for one team, one website, one event. With plenty of excellent feedback from this team I tweaked the tool until it suits the particular way in which tango organisers prefer to manage events. Communications are personal, necessary commercial elements take a backseat by design and all the tools support and enable both individuals and teams. Overall, the aim is to help everyone ‘get together’ in an efficient, stress-free and empowering way. At last I believe it may be safe to throw out the spreadsheets! – Rita Maree Horne
