Ending events

You can manually stop any event, even those that have a scheduled end, from the Launchpad dashboard. Ending an event early can let you respond to changing circumstances, such as selling out of inventory or adjusting your marketing strategy.

When you create an event, you can schedule the date and time for it to end. If you schedule an ending for your event, then it ends automatically at the chosen date and time. If you don't schedule an end date and time, then you must manually stop the event.

Steps:

  1. From your Shopify admin, go to Apps > Launchpad.

  2. Click the event that you want to end.

  3. Click End event, and then click OK.

Your store returns to the state it was in before the event started with the following exceptions:

  • If your event made products available to sales channels, then these products remain available.
  • Inventories aren't adjusted after the event ends.
  • If you chose to use a different theme during your event, then you also chose a theme to use after the event ends. This after-event theme is applied to your store at the end of the event.
  • If you chose to use specific Shopify scripts during your event, then you also chose scripts to use after the event ends. These after-event scripts are applied to your store at the end of the event.

To learn more about what changes occur during an event, refer to Changes that occur before, during, and after an event.
