Facebook Event Image Sizes
Meta no longer publishes a hard pixel spec for event covers; 1920 x 1005 is the size consistently reported as mobile-safe in 2026 guides. Preview on a phone before you publish.
| Placement | Recommended size | Aspect ratio | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Event cover photo | 1920 x 1005 px | 1.91:1 | JPG or PNG; full width on desktop, centre-cropped on mobile |
| Minimum upload | 400 x 150 px | wide | Anything this small is upscaled; stay at 1920 wide |
| Feed post image | 1200 x 630 px | 1.91:1 | Link previews and image posts about the event |
| Square post | 1080 x 1080 px | 1:1 | Guest and speaker banners in the feed |
| Story | 1080 x 1920 px | 9:16 | Keep text out of the top and bottom 250 px |
Facebook applies its own compression; export JPG at high quality or PNG for flat colours and text.
The Cover Is One Image; the Shares Are Many
I'm Going Banners for Guests
Embed the widget on your ticket confirmation page. Guests type their name, get a banner in the square or story size and share it to Facebook, WhatsApp or by download. Each share links back to the event through a tracked link.
Speaker and Host Banners
Import hosts and speakers, map name and photo, and send each one a personal share page. The device share sheet opens with the image attached; Facebook, WhatsApp and Messenger are one tap away.
Make the Cover and the Share Banners
1. Design at 1920 x 1005

2. Duplicate Into Square and Story

3. Set the Landing URL
The Facebook event page or your ticket page. Shares link there through tracked short links.
What Works With Facebook Events
Clicks per Guest and Speaker
Every share has its own link and every click is recorded and bot-filtered, including Facebook's own link crawler.
Purchases Attributed on Your Ticket Pages
Sell tickets on your own site with the pixel installed and each purchase is attributed to the guest or speaker who shared it, in the currency sold.
