# Add video in event description

We have added a new feature for the **event description** in your online calendar. Usually, when you open an online calendar, you can read a short description of what you get when you make a booking.

We know that a picture is worth a thousand words. But at **TuCalendi we go a step further**: instead of an image, we **have added the option to show a video in the description of your events**.

Yes, you read that right. Instead of writing a description of the service people can book with you, **you can now show a video**.

By **including a short video** that introduces you and explains your service, you connect with your clients and potential clients right from the start. **You will engage your audience and stand out from your competition**.

**Adding your video presentation to TuCalendi events is very simple**. You just need to create the video in **mp4 format** and specify in the event which video you want to show.

[Log in](https://account.tucalendi.com/login) to TuCalendi with your username and password and go to the **"Calendars"** option.

**Find the event** where you want to add a video to the description and **click on the event name**.

All the event configuration options appear in the horizontal menu.

Click on the **"Basics"** block.

In the text field of the **"Show video"** option, **enter the URL** where the video you want to display is located.

Once you have done that, simply click on the **"Save"** button.

From now on, the event description in your online calendar will be shown with a video.
