# How to add a speaker to a session

To add a speaker to a session, you must first create that speaker in your overall event.

To do that, you can go to the **Speaker** **tab** on the left side, or you can click **“create a new speaker”** on the session in the Sessions tab (image below).

Once you create the speaker, you can type their name into the search bar in the Session under the “Sessions” tab in the event admin page.

Click on the name, and then click “Add”.

**To remove a speaker from a session,** check the checkbox next to their name, and click “remove speaker” (image below)

**If you are running a virtual event, and the speaker will be speaking virtually, you will need to connect an attendee to the speaker. The next article explains how to do this!**
