About Hero Event
Hero Event announces a conference like a departures board: cities and dates flip through on split-flap tiles, a live countdown ticks to the first day, and the speaker line-up sits under the ticket button.
It is a full-width hero section for React and Tailwind CSS 4, in a dark and futuristic style. Preview it at any width above, then install it with one command.
When to use Hero Event
- Conferences and summits with several cities.
- Product launch nights.
- Meetups and community events.
- Limited drops and release days.
How it is built
Split Flap and Countdown handle the motion, the stops cycle every few seconds, and every label, from the tour line to the button, is a prop.
It is composed from Avatar Group, Button, Countdown, Split Flap, so installing it also installs those components, and you can restyle each one the same way you would on its own.

Frequently asked questions
- Does Hero Event work with Next.js?
- Yes. It is a React 19 component styled with Tailwind CSS 4, so it drops into a Next.js page, a Vite app, Remix or Astro.
- Can I change the copy and colours?
- Yes. The section is a file in your project. Text, links and images are plain props or JSX, and colours come from your theme's CSS variables, so a brand change is a token edit.
