Upcoming Price Increase, Go Pro Now, Lock-In Current Price!
In a Nutshell
We are announcing an upcoming price increase to the Pro licenses. This will come into effect early next week, at which point purchases, renewals and upgrade prices will be at a new price level. Buy, renew or upgrade now to keep the current pricing for subsequent renewals!
If you have an active license (i.e. you bought an EM license in the past year), no action is required; you will maintain your current pricing provided you renew your license on time. If you are thinking of upgrading to more sites, however, now is the time as upgrading will move you to one of our new price plans.
The Full Story
Events Manager Pro was released in 2010, at the starting price of $75 for 1 site. This price has remained unchanged for over 12 years!
Over these many years, we’ve kept adding features and included them in the Pro license at no hidden extra costs or add-ons. Countless hours, lines of code, love and dedication have been poured into both free and Pro versions making EM the success it is today.
With the recent flurry of updates and new features, it is time for an overdue price increase. In doing so, we’ll be able to sustain the expansion of our featureset and improving on our current features both in the free and Pro versions of our plugin.
We appreciate that everything seems to be increasing in price these days, the timing may seem coincidental, but this is actually a postponed price increase which we had planned just before the start of the 2020 pandemic. We postponed this increase given it came at a time event creators needed all the support they could get.
However, by purchasing, renewing or upgrading now, you’ll get to lock in the current pricing and benefit from the same current conditions, ALL our current and future add-ons sold on our site at the same yearly price you’re paying now.
Moreover, we still intend on making our new prices a great value purchase, given we are still including all our add-ons and upcoming new features. We’re keeping things simple… choose the number of sites you’d like, get all we have to offer!
New Prices and Change Date
We are intending to change the prices at the start of next week (November 7th). We will be introducing some new price plans at the same time. Below is a table of our current and future pricing.

Want 5+ Sites Now?
Please note that if you’d like to upgrade to 10 sites or more before the price changes take effect, you’ll need to get in touch with us directly. We advise getting the 5-site license first and then writing to us stating your username. Please note that due to the level of requests we’re receiving, you may expect a few days delayed reply but rest assured if you contact us before the price change, we’ll honour your request.
Looking Forward
We hope you’ve enjoyed or are enjoying using Events Manager so far. I personally am very excited for what’s to come and look forward to witnessing the million and one new ways EM will be used for. We have a lot of great features in the pipeline and look forward to sharing them with you!
Thanks for all your support over the past 12 years, here’s to many more!
