In a bid to support creators and small businesses, Facebook is planning to let Pages charge for access to events with Live videos.
In its announcement of Messenger Rooms, the expansion of WhatsApp video calls, and new live video features for Facebook, Instagram, and Portal, Facebook also announced that Pages would soon be able to mark Facebook Events as online only.

Facebook says that the feature would apply to anything “from online performances to classes to professional conferences,” and is part of the company’s bid to support creators and small businesses on its platform.
