# 1. Add an Eventful Widget to a Page

Drag an Eventful widget from the Elementor panel onto any page or template.

1. Open the page in Elementor: in **Pages**, hover over the page and click **Edit with Elementor**.
2. In the Elementor panel, type **Eventful** in the search box, or scroll to the **Eventful** category.

   The Eventful widgets in the Elementor panel.
3. Drag a widget, for example **Eventful Grid**, onto the page. Drop it where the blue line shows.
4. The widget shows your upcoming events straight away, using its default settings. Change them in the panel on the left.
5. Click **Publish** (or **Update**) to save the page.

## Where you can use the widgets

- Any page or post you edit with Elementor.
- Elementor templates you insert into other pages.
- Theme-builder areas, if you use Elementor Pro's Theme Builder. Elementor Pro is not required for the widgets themselves.

## Which widget to choose

Each layout is a separate widget: Grid, Carousel, Slider, List, Minimal List, Masonry, Timeline, Table and Accordion. The Ticker is a mode of the Carousel. See all of them on the [home page](https://elementor.wpeventful.com/), or start from the [Overview](https://elementor.wpeventful.com/docs/overview/).
