### Create a calendar hold
There are a few different ways you can create a calendar hold:
1. Click the **“Add Holds” button** in the right-hand corner of the calendar screen.
1. Here, you will enter your **event name**, select the **venue**, and **choose your hold**.
1. 1. Once you are done, click "**Place Holds".**
2. You can also place a hold on a **specific day** by clicking on the date first, and then selecting the **“Add Holds” button**
**Want quickly to hold multiple days / weeks?**
1. **Hold your CTRL key & click / drag** to select and place a hold over multiple days simultaneously.
2. Holds will be automatically numbered based on availability and existing holds. You can manually edit the number by managing the calendar hold.
### **Edit a calendar hold**
When you navigate back to your calendar you will see your holds. **If you hover over a hold**, any other dates associated with that hold **will be highlighted as well**.
- To **EDIT** a hold, click on any one of the hold dates.
### **Confirm a calendar hold**
Once your event has a confirmed date, you can easily confirm one from your calendar holds.
- Click on the hold you would like to confirm and fill out the four fields in the hold information:
- **Doors, Show, Curfew, Min Age.**
- Next, click the **checkmark** to **confirm your hold.**
### Delete a Calendar Hold
- Click on the hold you would like to **delete**
- Next, on the right side of the hold module, you will see a **pencil icon.**
- Click this to edit your hold.
- After clicking the pencil icon, you will see a trash can icon appear. **Click the trash can to delete this hold date.**
- **Select from the module** if you want to delete ONLY this specific date from the hold, or all other dates associated with the hold as well.
- **Follow the buttons to delete the desired holds.**
