How To Set Up Event Carousel Schema In Schema Package
Event Carousel Schema helps search engines understand a group of related events displayed on a single page and makes them eligible for rich, swipeable carousel results in search.
With Schema Package, you can configure Event Carousel Schema visually—no coding required.
This guide explains what Event Carousel Schema is, when to use it, and how to set it up step by step using Schema Package.
What Is Event Carousel Schema?
Event Carousel Schema is a structured data implementation based on ItemList that groups multiple Event entities together.
Each event in the carousel contains its own Event schema properties, such as:
- Event name
- Event URL
- Event image
- Start date and end date
- Event location (online or physical)
- Organizer
- Ticket price or availability (if available)
Search engines can use this structured relationship to better understand and potentially display your events as a carousel in search results.
When Should You Use Event Carousel Schema?
You should use Event Carousel Schema when:
- A page displays multiple related events
- Events belong to the same category, series, or organizer
- You want search engines to understand the relationship between events
- You want improved eligibility for rich search features
⚠️ Important: All events included in the carousel must be visible on the page and genuinely related.

- Go to WordPress Admin → Schema Package
- Select Carousel Tab
- Click Add Schema
- Select Event Carousel Schema from dropdown as the schema type
