A series of <a class="localLink" href="http://schema.org/Event">Event</a>s. Included events can relate with the series using the <a class="localLink" href="http://schema.org/superEvent">superEvent</a> property.<br/><br/> An EventSeries is a collection of events that share some unifying characteristic. For example, "The Olympic Games" is a series, which is repeated regularly. The "2012 London Olympics" can be presented both as an <a class="localLink" href="http://schema.org/Event">Event</a> in the series "Olympic Games", and as an <a class="localLink" href="http://schema.org/EventSeries">EventSeries</a> that included a number of sporting competitions as Events.<br/><br/> The nature of the association between the events in an <a class="localLink" href="http://schema.org/EventSeries">EventSeries</a> can vary, but typical examples could include a thematic event series (e.g. topical meetups or classes), or a series of regular events that share a location, attendee group and/or organizers.<br/><br/> EventSeries has been defined as a kind of Event to make it easy for publishers to use it in an Event context without worrying about which kinds of series are really event-like enough to call an Event. In general an EventSeries may seem more Event-like when the period of time is compact and when aspects such as location are fixed, but it may also sometimes prove useful to describe a longer-term series as an Event.
