Go to Events and click New event. On your phone, tap +. If you have no events yet, click Create your first event.

The event form then asks about:

1. Your event type. Pick the one that fits best.
2. What else describes it, including how you'll feature the brand's product.
3. When and where it happens: the date, the time of day and the venue address.
4. Your event's name.
5. A poster. This is optional, so you can skip it.
6. A description of the experience, at least 80 characters long.
7. Who's coming: how many people, their age groups and the gender mix.

When you're done, click Publish event. Then invite brands: open the brands you'd like at your event and send each one a request. Your event needs a venue address. You add your shipping address, where the products should go, when you send a brand a request. The two can be different.
