Not sure whether this is your setup? Send me your ticketing link and the WordPress calendar plugin you use. I will point you to the right guide.
1. Install The Events Calendar
In your WordPress admin, go to Plugins > Add New and search for The Events Calendar.
Install and activate the plugin. WordPress will add an Events section to your admin menu. That is where your imported Veezi movies will appear after Jeero has synced them.
2. Install Jeero
Go to Plugins > Add New and search for Jeero.
Install and activate the plugin. Jeero adds its own admin section where you can connect a ticketing solution to one or more WordPress calendar plugins.
You do not need a paid Jeero plan to test the setup. The free plan is enough to confirm that Veezi movies are arriving in WordPress.
3. Connect Veezi
Open Jeero > Imports in the WordPress admin and create a new import.
Choose Veezi as the ticketing solution and save the import once. Reopen the import, then open the Veezi tab.
Jeero will ask for:
- Veezi access token: the access token Jeero should use to read films, screens, and showtimes from Veezi.
Generate an access token in Veezi Back Office, or ask the cinema's Veezi admin to create one for you. Each access token gives access to one Veezi site.
- Region: choose USA, Europe, or Other. Jeero uses this to call the correct Veezi API region.
If you are not sure which Veezi access token or region Jeero needs, send me your cinema website and ticketing link. I can usually tell what to ask your Veezi admin for.
Save the import. Jeero checks the connection and shows which Veezi site it can reach when the access token is valid.
4. Choose Showtime Filters
After Jeero connects to Veezi, choose the showtimes filter.
Start with All showtimes with web sales when you want Jeero to follow the public ticketing flow.
Use Custom filter only when you deliberately want to include or exclude showtimes by status or show type.
If the first import contains too many or too few screenings, this is the first setting to review.
5. Enable The Events Calendar Import
Open the The Events Calendar tab in the Jeero import settings.
Enable the import and save your changes. Jeero will now send upcoming Veezi movies to The Events Calendar.
Start with the default import settings. After you have confirmed that movies are syncing, you can decide whether Jeero should update movie categories, images, and custom templates on first import only or on every import. Leave Status for new events on Draft if you want to review imported movies first. Choose Publish if the movies should appear on the public website after the first import.
6. Check Your First Movies
The first sync usually runs within a few minutes.
Go to Events in the WordPress admin and check whether your upcoming Veezi movies appear. Open one imported movie and confirm the basics:
- The title matches the Veezi film or showtime.
- The date and time are correct.
- The film description and poster image are present when Veezi provides them.
- The screen appears as the movie cinema.
- The ticket link sends visitors to the correct Veezi ticket page.
- Sold-out sessions show the expected status when Veezi provides that data.
If no movies appear yet, wait a few minutes and check that the Jeero import is active, the Veezi access token is valid, the region is correct, and the selected showtime filter includes upcoming public sessions.
7. Show Movies on Your Website
The Events Calendar creates the public /events/ calendar page.
Open /events/ to check the list, month, and day views. If the page says there are no upcoming movies, check whether Jeero imported the movies as drafts. Review and publish draft movies, or set Status for new events to Publish in the Jeero import before future imports. On a fresh The Events Calendar install, Events > Settings may show the first-time setup guide before normal settings are available. Add /events/ to your website menu when you are ready.
Optional Cinema Improvements
Once the basic sync works, you can tune the import.
Good next improvements for this setup:
- Show rating, duration, format, trailer, backdrop image, or cast and crew when your movie template supports richer film pages.
- Map Veezi genres into WordPress movie categories.
- Use showtime filters when your website should only display public or web-sale screenings.
- Use custom fields when your theme needs structured cinema data such as seating, price card, or sales cutoff time.
Veezi can also provide extra fields for custom templates, such as distributor name, censor rating, content advisory for the film, film duration, and other platform-specific fields. Use them when your movie pages, filters, or templates need more than the basic title, date, image, location, and ticket link.

Need the import to match your website more closely? Tell me what you want to show on the event page. Jeero can often support custom fields, category mapping, additional data, or platform-specific tweaks once the basic sync works.
Start with the Free Jeero Plugin
The free plan lets you test the full setup with up to 10 upcoming showtimes. That is enough to check the Veezi connection, review the imported movie pages, and decide whether the workflow fits your cinema website.
Get a free setup check — send me your site URL and ticketing platform. I will tell you whether the free Jeero setup is enough or whether you need something custom.
When you are ready to sync more showtimes, expose richer film data, or polish the import for your cinema site, you can upgrade Jeero later.
