Our article will be structured from the following sections:
What kind of group can you create on VKontakte?
Group
A simple group is suitable for you to create a group based on interests, where only a limited number of people or all group members can fill it with their materials. For example, a group dedicated to car audio or car tuning, a musical group, performer, etc. In order for the group to be filled not only by you, but also by subscribers, you need to set the appropriate parameters in the settings.
Public page
A public page is created to inform VKontakte users. For example, you have your own online store and in order to receive potential customers, as well as inform your regular customers about the arrival of a new product, you create a public page, users subscribe to it and receive the latest information. The same applies to your company, which, for example, specializes in providing services. For webmasters, a public page will help attract additional traffic to the site; if you publish a description of the site’s news and links to them on this page, then users who read you on VKontakte can go to your site to read the full version of the article.
Event
Event – this type of group is created with the purpose of informing and attracting people to it. For example, you are the manager of a club and a grand party is being prepared, for example, in honor of the club’s birthday. In order to fuel the interest of subscribers (potential visitors), you can publish a photo report on how preparations for the event are going: publishing photos of the installation of decorations, adding advertising videos, etc. The date of the event, its time and location and other information will be written on the event wall. If, for example, you are organizing a meeting of a club of tuned cars, then on the event wall you can tell about the location of the event, date and other organizational information. You will also be able to post interesting materials: photos of participants and their cars, photos from past events, etc. Which group is best to create on VKontakte - decide based on the above description. Let's take a quick look at creating and configuring each of these types of groups.
Method #1: change the date
1. In your VKontakte profile, click on the “My Groups” menu.
2. Click in the “Upcoming Events” section on the page you want to delete.
3. Go to the “Community Management” section.
4. In the Start Time option, set the past date (for example, if today is March 30th, set it to the 20th). Click on the “calendar” icon in the field and select a day.
5. Click “Specify end time” and set the elapsed date in the same way.
Now, if the meeting is re-scheduled, the VKontakte invitation will not be visible on the personal pages of the participants and in your profile.
Activity
It’s not enough to just invite people to an event and send out advertisements. We still need to whet the interest of those who took part in the event. This is usually done through thematic posts on the event page. It can be:
- news reports;
- humor;
- thematic posts;
- surveys;
- on your personal page;
- offers;
- etc.
It is necessary to interest people, to involve them in active participation in the development of the event. Ideally, they should feel like they are part of what is happening.
Conclusion
Thus, now you know the necessary tools for successfully creating and promoting events in VK. With practice, these skills will make you more aware of the need to use certain methods.
Unfortunately, VKontakte does not have a button that allows you to delete a created event in one click. And, accordingly, it will not be possible to completely get rid of the page on which you made an appointment for invited participants. But you can change the settings of the page with an invitation to the event so that it is not displayed in the profiles of other participants and cannot be found through the internal search of the social network.
Method #2: change settings and delete content
1. On the event page, click “Photos” in the feed.
2. Hover over the photo album and click the “Edit” icon.
3. Click the "Delete" option.
4. In the panel that opens, click “Delete all photos for the last week.”
5. Go to “Audio Recordings”. In each audio track one by one, click the cross icon to remove them from the page.
6. Also, using standard VKontakte tools, get rid of the rest of the content uploaded to the invitation feed (videos, notes).
7. Go to the “Community Management” section.
8. In the last block of access settings, click on the “Meeting Type” column and select “Closed” from the drop-down submenu.
In the remaining options of this block (Wall, Photos, Videos) set the value to “Disabled”.
10. Go to the “Participants” tab and delete all invited users (the “Delete” button in the panel of each user).
That's all! Despite the fact that the event page remains, it no longer fulfills its original functions—it has actually been deleted.
If you need to gather a large audience for a concert or disco (event), if you need to invite all your friends to a party, wedding or anniversary, then you can use the very convenient function of the VKontakte website and create an event. Thus, it will be convenient, beautiful and original to notify a large number of people about the upcoming event. It will also be possible to find out in advance how many people are going to come.
How to invite to an event?
The process is similar to inviting friends to a group.
While on the event page, click on the “Invite Friends” button. In the list that opens, find the people you want to invite and click on the “Send an invitation” button opposite them.
We send an invitation to the event
Any user can create an event on VKontakte.
In order to create an event on VKontakte, you need to select the “My groups” button in the menu on the left, then “Create a community”. In the window that appears, you need to note that the community is an event and indicate its name. The “Create a community” button completes the preparatory stage. Now you need to provide more detailed information about the upcoming event. The most important thing is the description. You need to think about how to vividly and interestingly describe the essence of the event in a few words and interest people and make them want to attend it. In addition to the description, you must indicate the organizer and start time of the event. You can add an end time if there is any scope. If you have a website (for example, a musical group to whose concert the page being created is intended to invite), it is also better to indicate it in the appropriate column.
For the convenience of guests, it would be a good idea to leave the phone number or email address of the organizer in the contact details of the event. They may have questions. Of course, event participants can ask them in the comments. To do this, the Discussions feature must be enabled. In the “Location” column, you can only indicate the city where the meeting will take place. Of course, it is better to tell guests the exact address and routes to get there. In addition, it is possible to attach an electronic map, which will clearly indicate the meeting place and the most convenient way to get there. Next, you need to configure additional functions and the desired level of privacy according to your own needs. Following the basic information is the “Participants” section. Everyone who wants to attend the event will be displayed there. If some participants behave inappropriately, they can easily be blacklisted by clicking the “Remove from meeting” button under their name. The “Links” section is intended to indicate sites, blogs or groups with similar topics.
Instructions on how to create a group on VKontakte
So, before creating a group on Vkontakte, it should be said that if for some reason you want to delete this group, you will not be able to do this.
As such, deleting groups on VKontakte is not provided; it can only be “cleared”, but not deleted. In principle, we will tell you about the process of deleting a group a little later, but now let’s look at the instructions for creating all three types of groups. To create a group on Vkontakte, you need to go to your page on this social network and click “My Groups” in the left menu. You will see a list of groups you are a member of and subscribed to. Then at the top, below the navigation bar, click on the “Create a Community” link. After this, you will see a window with a choice of community type Create a group

If you suddenly change your mind, you can rename the group. If not, we leave the name the same. page address
The system will automatically enter its serial number in the page address field. But in order for your group not to get lost among thousands of other groups, we recommend coming up with some more original name, written in Latin letters. If this address is busy, and the system informs you about this, then you will have to change or even come up with a new address.

After that, click “Create a community” and go to the event page settings menu.
As with the creation of previous types of communities, at the very beginning you can adjust the name of the event and the address of the page on the social network. Next, enter a description of the event, information that will interest users, you can mention sponsors, etc. If there is an official website of the event, its main organizers, or any other resource that is associated with it, then enter its web address in the appropriate field. And, of course, the main thing is to indicate the start time of the event (and, if necessary, its end time). Don't forget to indicate the location of the event and configure access to this page. Below, select the categories of data that you will publish on the event page and access to them:
- Photos;

Changing group information and settings
Remember that you can make changes to your group settings at any time. You can change the name, limit or expand access to users, add additional sections, etc.
How to get a large number of participants
There are different ways, both free and paid. The simplest of all is the “Tell Friends” button. You can add a request for help in spreading the word to your event entry for friends. Then they will share it with their friends, perhaps the news about the event will go further. You can also invite people in groups and on message boards, unless the rules of a particular community prohibit it. Although most often groups charge money for publication. This method is already a paid one, it is the most common and gives good results. If you are going to invest your money in advertising, then, first of all, you should find a group with a large number of participants. In order for people to really become interested, it must be on a suitable topic. Another way to attract participants is inviting.
It is also used to promote groups or public pages. In order to send out invites (that is, invitations), they usually use special programs. Manually you will never achieve such efficiency as, for example, 500 people in 1 minute. All such programs are paid, but are cheaper than advertising space in a group.
In addition to the program, you can contact specialists who professionally promote the event. You can find several offers for the provision of services and choose an acceptable cost. What’s convenient about this method, besides the lack of hassle, is that you can specify all the necessary parameters in the order, for example, limit the age range, indicate the city or region. Then people will be selected for the upcoming event who will actually be able to attend it, and advertising will justify itself to the maximum.
When the page is created and advertising for the event is launched, all that remains is to monitor the influx of participants, answer questions and fill the page with beautiful pictures and information that may be of interest to subscribers. With proper filling and good advertising, the enterprise will definitely be a success.
Your options when creating a VK meeting
By creating an event page, you can take advantage of the following benefits:
- Unlike groups, you can invite members of your communities here - 5,000 invitations per day. Quite a bit of! Is not it?
- But if you invite your friends, then everything is according to the standard - no more than 40 invitations per day.
- As your event approaches, everyone who clicked “Going” or “Maybe Going” will receive a notification. This way, you don't have to worry about reminders or anyone forgetting.
- VKontakte users will be much more willing to look at information on the internal pages of VK than on other third-party sites (fear of getting a virus, spam, etc.).
- Very convenient in situations where your event is held repeatedly. Since it is possible to change the date to a new one. This way, you won't have to create the appointment again, and people will be notified again.
- Everything that is posted on the event wall will also appear in the news feed. Everything works here as in regular groups.
- The interface is tailored specifically to the holding of a particular event. It's quite convenient. In public it would look like a regular post.
As you can see, there are a number of advantages here that no other tool has. This is why meetings are one of the most effective ways to attract people to an event.
How to delete an event on VKontakte
If a meeting or concert (event) was successful and the page is no longer needed, then there is a desire to delete it. Technically, the event will not be completely deleted; it can only be cleared and hidden. In the settings you can delete the title, all added information, pictures and discussions. To remove a page from the lists of community members, just change the date. The easiest way is to change the year to the past year, then it will no longer be displayed for both the participants and the organizer.

There are many questions on this topic on the Internet, but only a few seem to know the answer to the question “how to FINALLY and COMPLETELY delete an event from a VKontakte group,” and even then they are silent. I myself looked for information on this topic, but did not find a comprehensive answer. I had to solve the problem myself.
Promotion – invitation to a meeting
When adding participants, there are two options to consider: a small event within a specific group of people and a large event for a wider audience. In the first case, the event administrator himself can add participants; this process will not take much time. When creating a large-scale event that requires gathering as many people as possible, you should use all possible promotion options:
- Invitation from your friends list.
Pros - free, cons - relatively small coverage, low conversion (not all friends will be interested in participating in a certain event). - Invitation from the list of community members.
The essence is approximately the same as with inviting from a friends list, but only the coverage is greater. - Inviting from third-party communities.
This is a kind of advertising: you look for a public page that suits you (preferably with a similar topic) and negotiate with its administrator about the possibility of adding its participants to your event. The price tag for this service can vary from 400 to 15,000 rubles, depending on the quality of the community from which you are going to invite people. - The most effective method of all available in the arsenal (it is better to contact the audience in advance). Its advantage is that it reaches the target audience. The disadvantages are the need to study the settings and the high cost of the service - with a budget of less than five thousand rubles, you don’t even have to bother here.
- Advertising the event through posts
in third-party communities and opinion leaders. Opinion leaders include well-known people in the topic area. For example, for a business conference these are famous entrepreneurs. Thus, you can buy posts from them or in other thematic communities and blogs, which will provide your event with advertising from the target audience. You can also try to negotiate with someone about this service for free (on mutually beneficial terms).
You CAN delete an event from a VKontakte group!
Even on VKontakte itself, there are repeated answers like: “unfortunately.” It is not true. It is very possible to remove it, and permanently. There are recommendations like: “delete all posts, participants, etc.” This is not at all necessary!
First, I’ll tell you a little background. Perhaps this will help someone avoid similar mistakes in the future. If you're not interested, move on to the next title.
I have a VKontakte group dedicated to 1C Accounting courses. Commercial group. Somehow, at the initial stage of the group’s development, I decided to create an event to add information about current promotions for training (discounts, etc.). As a result, I ended up with 3 events (not immediately, of course).
The protests have passed, but the events remain. I got rid of them in the following way.
There was an important part of the article, but without JavaScript it is not visible!
How to remove an event from a group
An event in a VKontakte group is like a mini-community and, like the group, it has management! This is what you should take advantage of.
We need to open an event. Then we go to “Community Management” (events, not groups!). Next we look at the participants of the event. There is a “Leaders” tab, and the organizer of the event is listed on it.
Unlike a group, you can change the organizer of an event! Just change it from your group to something else and problem solved! If the procedure is performed with all events, then this block in the group will disappear on its own (it is impossible to hide it if there is at least one event).
Helps 100%. I got rid of all the events in my VKontakte group and don’t create them there anymore. You can check it (link above or on the right of the site). If it didn’t work out, we tried poorly. I don’t include any pictures due to the lack of unnecessary activities in the group, and there are no complex operations here.

Setting up a group on VKontakte
Of course, every administrator wants to create a beautiful VKontakte group.
Of course, the more beautiful the group is designed, the more users will join and subscribe to it. In addition to beauty, filling the group with high-quality and interesting material also plays an important role, but as far as the material is concerned, this is entirely up to you. We, in turn, will help you design the group visually beautifully. The first thing you need to do is the group avatar, this is the main picture, which is located at the top right. To do this, you can set a picture with a height of 600 pixels and a width of 200. The avatar of your group can be the logo of a group, website, company, or just a beautiful picture - in a word, what you like will be liked by users and will distinguish your group, visually identifying it.
The next thing we recommend doing is a graphical menu. A graphic menu will allow you to navigate through the group and insert links to various sites embedded in the main menu image, which will look more harmonious than regular text links.
How to create a menu in a VKontakte group
Creating a menu in a VKontakte group is quite simple; this video will tell you how to do it.
How to beautifully fill a VKontakte group
When filling your group, try not to use special symbols, and if you do use them, then there should be a very minimal number of such symbols, since their presence makes the group “childish” rather than serious. Group headings should be interesting and informative. Pay attention to the pictures that you will add to your group page; they must be of good quality. Pay attention to user comments, they can give interesting recommendations on content, style and content.
Let's sum it up
Before creating an event in a VKontakte group, think carefully about whether you need it. Perhaps you should make a regular post in the group and pin it? In any case, VKontakte events should be created only if it is really necessary - some important event. It is better to think BEFORE than to delete this event later.
Events on the social network VKontakte are a very useful type of community. You can use it to schedule a meeting, which will be reminded to all participants. Only after the event has passed does it not disappear. Sometimes this is very disturbing. What does VKontakte offer here? How to delete an event? All the best tips and tricks will be presented to your attention. In fact, if you approach the task correctly, you can change the situation without any problems. The main thing is to try.

Is it possible?
First of all, I wonder whether it is possible to delete an event on a social network or not. It is likely that such a function is not provided here. After all, few people are interested in how to delete a VKontakte audio recording or a photo. Everyone has known about this for a long time over the many years of existence of the social network.

There are some tricks that are used very often in practice.
Information
The first trick is to get rid of the information you posted. And all of them. The distribution includes photographs, audio recordings, an avatar, videos, contacts, and topics for discussion, if any.
The most important thing after all this is to remove the event participants. In this case, the page will not disappear, but it will no longer appear in the list of upcoming events.

More precisely, as we have already found out, it is impossible using standard methods. But you can remove your event from upcoming events.
date
How exactly? Remember, only the event creator can bring your idea to life. It is he who has all the tools that are useful for deceiving the social network. In order to get rid of an event, you will need to change the date of the event. To prevent this community from disturbing users, you just need to set the day, month and year of the event in the settings at any point in time that has already passed. This can be any date.

Leaving the event
But what if you are a simple participant? The whole point is that you will be able to implement your idea without any problems. Why? Because deleting an event in this case means a taboo on participation. Refusing to visit a particular place is no more difficult than answering how to delete an audio recording on VKontakte. All you need to do is visit the event page and select the “Change decision” menu item there. It is located under the avatar. Next, select “I can’t go” - and that’s it, the job is done.

Designing a VKontakte event - step-by-step guide from Anna Mataras
Friends, greetings. My name is Anna Mataras and I am a practicing administrator of VKontakte communities. We continue the conversation about VKontakte events.
Anna Mataras. Northern Cyprus.
The general rules for group registration remain relevant for the event. Therefore, we remember that the avatar should attract attention with a pleasant color palette and reflect the essence of your event. Don't forget to add a call to participate.
Test "3 seconds" for an event
Let me remind you that according to the rules of this test, any person who visits the group page, in our case the event page, must decide in 3 seconds where he is and whether he should take part. What I, as a potential participant, want to understand by going to the event page: topic, online or offline (if offline, then location), paid or free, start time.
All these parameters should be clear from the avatar, group name and proper settings (time, place, cost).
If your event is interesting to a person, he will join it. Starts studying and decides whether to go for it. Therefore, further registration is also important.
General rules for registering a VKontakte event
What can be included here? First of all, the top post on the wall or a pinned post should briefly describe what will happen at the event, what benefits a person will receive, the conditions for participation and the link to register, if necessary.
Be sure to use a bright and attractive picture, in which you duplicate the main points with text, but do not overdo it, since a lot of text in a picture is also not very good.
- question answer
- about the coach
- event program
- reviews
In the “Contacts” block, be sure to indicate the coach, organizer, administrator and other persons as desired, if necessary.

How to delete a VKontakte event that you created yourself
A complete list of all the meetings that you have ever held on VK can be found on your community page. Just below the video recording area, on the right, you will notice a tab that reports on all the activities that have taken place. To delete a past event that you created on VKontakte,
you need to go to the main page of the meeting. It is important to note that VKontakte does not allow you to erase all information about past events in one click.
If you want the information about the meeting to be completely erased, you will have to manually remove pictures, information about the community, delete video and audio, and participants. To remove all information about an event from VK search:
- Remove all meeting participants. Go to the community management area. Click on the “Participants” tab. To the right of each person who accepted your invitation to participate in the event, there is a special delete button. The fewer participants in your meeting, the more difficult it will be to find it in search.
- Convert the event from open to closed. To make a private meeting that people won't be able to join unless invited, open the group information area.
Scroll down the page. Opposite the “Group Type” tab, select “Closed”. Afterwards, unsubscribe from this event yourself. Then, from your profile, go to the “My Groups” tab. Find information about management. If you did everything correctly, the deleted event will disappear from this list. After some time, the VK administration will remove the empty community from the search.
Goals and means in politics
Policies can be aimed at various public spheres and problem sectors. Based on this, its economic, social, environmental orientation, etc. are distinguished. Policy goals are divided into long-term and current, priority and secondary, tactical and strategic.
You can achieve your goals and objectives in politics by a variety of means - persuasion, negotiations, dialogue, blackmail, coup, murder, etc. The arsenal of means available to politicians is huge. N. Machiavelli believed that the ends in politics justify the means. Disputes about the relationship between politics and morality continue to this day.
