# Event and Series Non participants

Spectators are Customers who are in an Event (or Series) and are not part of the Customers playing in the Event. A spectator can be added to any Event by being added to the Attendee List as a Non-participant.

### In an Event

To add a Customer as a Non-participant to an Event:

* Open the Event
* Click the “Add” button in the Attendees section of the Event
* Type in the Customer’s full name
* Select Non-participant at the top
* Check the box to the right of the Customer’s name
* Notice the box turns into a checkmark
* Click the Add button at the bottom

Now the Customer will show up in the Attendee section as a “… + 1 non-participants” and there will also be an envelope icon below their name. If an Admin hovers of this icon, it will say “Customer was added as non-participant.”

### In a Series

Normally, when Customers sign up for a Series, or when added by an Admin, the Customer will be added to all Event session within a Series. This is not the case with the Non-participant.

When adding a Non-participant to a Series, the Customer added WILL NOT be propagated across all Event sessions in the Series. This means, by adding a Customer as a Non-participant, there’s also a way to add a Customer to a single Event session within a Series.

The process of adding a Non-participant to a Series is to:

* Open the Series
* Click the “Add” button in the Attendees section of the Event
* Type in the Customer’s full name
* Select Non-participant at the top
* Check the box to the right of the Customer’s name
* Notice the box turns into a checkmark
* Click the Add button at the bottom

Now the Customer will be added ONLY to that Event session of the Series.

Adding a Customer as a Non-participant to a Series is also how an Admin can add a Customer and charge them within the Event session of a Series. Meaning, once the Customer has been added to an Event session of a Series, their name will be available to charge in the Purchase tab of the Event.

An Admin can then charge the Customer for a single Event signup for the Series.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.podplay.app/events/create-an-event/manage-attendees/event-and-series-non-participants.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
