Planning Center Calendar vs. Planning Center Registrations

Planning Center Calendar is a communication tool to help you manage your events schedule, reserve rooms, and track resources. With Planning Center Calendar, you can categorize events with descriptive tags, book rooms and resources and make those reservations visible to your team, set up event approval requests to mitigate miscommunications or double-bookings, and publish your calendar where congregants can see events and sign up.

Planning Center Registrations is an event registration tool for online signups. With Planning Center Registrations you can create custom, easy signups for any event type—whether large and complex like VBS, camps, and missions trips, or simpler events like meal trains, baptism signups, or concerts. Collect and organize the information you need to host a successful event. Planning Center Registrations is part of Planning Center, an all-in-one church management system to help you organize information, coordinate events, communicate with your team, and connect with your congregation.
