# Canceling an event

The event organizer can choose to cancel a published event at any time. Only published events can be canceled.
If the event is still in the draft stage, it can only be [deleted](/spotnana/event_deletion_workflow).

> **Note:** Canceling an event will not cancel the traveler’s trip or their bookings.


To cancel an event, use the following API endpoint:

| Name | Endpoint | Details |
|  --- | --- | --- |
| [Cancel event](/openapi/eventapi#operation/cancelEvent) | `/v2/events/{eventId}/cancel` | Cancel a published event.**URL path requires:** `eventId` generated from step 1 of [creating and publishing an event](/spotnana/event_creating_workflow) workflow. |
