# Trips

> Plan multi-location trips that combine travel, lodging, and shows into a single itinerary.

A trip in Roadcase represents a multi-location journey — a run of shows, a festival weekend, or any stretch of dates where your team is on the road. Trips give you a way to group related events together and plan the full picture of a tour leg.

## What is a trip?

While individual travel and lodging events track specific logistics, a trip ties them all together into a cohesive itinerary. Think of a trip as a container for a sequence of connected dates — the shows you are playing, the drives between them, the hotels along the way, and any other events that happen during that stretch.

Trips are especially useful for:

* **Tour legs** — A two-week run through the Southeast, for example
* **Festival weekends** — Travel to the festival, the performance, and the return trip
* **Fly dates** — A single out-of-town show that requires flights and a hotel
* **Promo runs** — A series of interviews, sessions, and appearances in one city

## Creating a trip

To create a trip:

1. Click **New event** on the calendar
2. Select **Trip** as the event type
3. Set the start and end dates for the trip
4. Add a title and any relevant notes
5. Click **Save**

> [!TIP]
>
> Name your trips descriptively — something like "West Coast Run" or "NYC Promo Week" — so they are easy to identify at a glance on the calendar.

## Trips on the calendar

Trip events span the full date range on your calendar, giving you a visual bracket around a block of dates. This makes it easy to see at a glance which dates belong to a particular tour leg or travel block.

## Planning with trips

Trips work best when combined with the other tour planning event types:

| Event type | Role in the trip |
| - | - |
| **Show** | The performances during the trip |
| **Travel** | Driving legs between cities |
| **Flight** | Air travel to, from, or during the trip |
| **Lodging** | Where your team is staying each night |

By layering these events together under a trip, you build a complete itinerary that your entire team can reference.
