Replace Trello for Events
From task boards to ticket sales.
For organizers managing events with task boards and project tools
Where Trello limits you for events
Trello was not built for event management. Here is where it leaves gaps.
Trello Standard costs $6/month per user. Event Schedule is free for unlimited events and public pages with team collaboration, and $5/month for ticketing with no per-user fees.
Zero platform fees on ticket sales. You only pay Stripe's processing fee.
What Event Schedule gives you over Trello
Purpose-built features that replace the workarounds.
Public Event Pages
Every event gets a shareable page with all details and ticket purchasing. Your audience sees event pages, not task cards.
Ticketing & Payments
Sell tickets with Stripe payments, multiple ticket types, and zero platform fees. Trello has no way to handle registrations or payments.
Team Collaboration
Invite team members with role-based access to manage events together. Purpose-built for event teams, not generic task management.
Google Calendar Sync
Two-way Google Calendar sync keeps events updated everywhere. No manual copying between boards and calendars.
AI Event Import
Paste event details in any format and AI extracts structured event data automatically. Faster than creating Trello cards.
Event Submissions
Accept event submissions from performers, speakers, or vendors. Review and approve submissions before they go live on your schedule.

About Trello
Trello is a kanban-style project management tool that some event organizers use to track event planning tasks. While Trello is great for organizing workflows with boards and cards, it has no attendee-facing features, no registration or ticketing, and task boards do not map well to the event lifecycle of creating, promoting, and managing events.
Trello's strengths
- Visual kanban boards for task management
- Simple drag-and-drop interface for organizing workflows
- Power-ups and integrations for extended functionality
Why switch to Event Schedule?
Trello tracks internal tasks. Event Schedule handles the full event lifecycle your audience actually sees: event pages, ticket sales, and promotion.
- Public event pages your audience can visit and buy tickets from
- Built-in ticketing with Stripe payments and zero platform fees
- Team collaboration purpose-built for event management workflows
- AI event import and auto-generated graphics for fast promotion
