: How would you markup an event with multiple showtimes? The only info I found on this was a question asked on Moz and the response was to create multiple events. That feels very counter intuitive.

The only info I found on this was a question asked on Moz and the response was to create multiple events. That feels very counter intuitive. If the venue, performer, performance, and price are all the same, should each showtime really get it's own individual event?

Google has a section for marking up event listings, but it doesn't explain how that's supposed to be implemented.

The definition of Event makes clear that the event has to happen "at a certain time", and it recommends:


Repeated events may be structured as separate Event objects.


If you would use a single Event item for multiple events, it wouldn’t be possible to use many of the properties, or it wouldn’t be clear what they mean:


attendee: which of the multiple events did the person attend?
eventStatus: what if one showtime was cancelled?
isAccessibleForFree: what if one of the multiple events is free?
offers: for which showtime is this offer?
recordedIn: from which showtime is this recording?
etc.


tl;dr: You have to provide multiple Event items.
