Standing out in search is not easy. But Google makes it a little easier with the rich results that you're eligible for only if you use structured data. It could be the HowTo markup, FAQs or product rich snippets. 

However, today you'll learn how to add event-structured data in Magento using only the Magento Rich Snippets tool (no coding required).

Let's get right to it.

Add Event Structured Data in Magento

1. Navigate to any page you'd like to add the structured data to and find the widgets tool in the Content section. 

2. Choose the Event Rich Snippet by Magefan as the Widget Type and fill out the Widget Options

Validate Event Structured Data

Note: the events structured data in Magento won't be visible anywhere on the frontend. Just in the code. 

So to make sure the event markup is correct, validate your page with the Schema Validator or Rich Results Test.

Event structured data makes you eligible for event experience in Google. This means people will discover your events directly in search which increases your chances of being discovered. 

However, note that you should use other important rich snippets to get the most out of the structured data.
