Import attendees from CSV

Prepare, validate, and import attendee and vehicle data.

Who can use this: Event managers. Available actions can vary with the event's enabled features and your assigned role.

Open this page

1. Sign in as an event manager.
2. Select Events, choose the event, then select Attendees.
3. Select Upload attendees.

CSV import is intended for attendee and vehicle records prepared outside Driven To Show.

1. Open the event's Attendees page and choose Upload attendees.
2. Download the current template. Do not rely on a template saved for an older event.
3. Keep the header row unchanged and enter one registration per row.
4. Match group/class values exactly to the available groups shown on the upload page.
5. Upload the CSV and review header, validation, and duplicate warnings.
6. Import only after the preview is correct, then review the results and attendee list.

Before importing a large file, test with a few representative rows. Preserve leading zeroes in phone numbers and identifiers, use consistent date formats, and remove spreadsheet formulas. Fix rejected rows in the source CSV and upload those rows again; do not re-import successful rows unless you intend to create duplicates.
