How to run Concurrent Events
Schedule a Restream Event.
Schedule any additional events for an overlapping day and time.
Go live at the scheduled time; you'll be broadcasting to all events simultaneously.
Once started, the events that are in progress will be grouped on the home screen.
You can click View Stream to see the live video preview, monitor your stream health, and even send messages in the live chat.
If an instant (not scheduled) stream is live simultaneously, it will appear on your home screen next to your other events.
