# Maintenance Release: The Events Calendar, Event Tickets and premium plugins

We’re winding down on the maintenance releases for The Events Calendar and Event Ticket s 4.2 as we ramp up the pace of development on version 4.3. By the way, we have a sneak peek at what’s coming up in version 4.3 and we hope it makes you as excited to ship it as we are. In the meantime, we have a fresh maintenance release that squashes a few bugs in several of our plugins. We’ll provide the detailed changelogs below but let’s first look at what is included in this release:

- The Events Calendar 4.2.7
- Events Calendar PRO 4.2.6
- Community Events 4.2.5
- Event Tickets 4.2.7
- Event Tickets Plus 4.2.7
 
 The following plugins have no changes in this release and their versions numbers remain the same: - Filter Bar 4.2.2
- Community Tickets 4.2.2
- iCal Importer 4.2.5
- Facebook Events 4.2
- Eventbrite Tickets 4.2.1
- Advanced Post Manager 4.2.2
 
 As always, we recommend that you [backup both your site files and database](https://codex.wordpress.org/WordPress_Backups) when updating to the latest versions of plugins, as you would with any other WordPress update, and to test the updates in a safe development environment in advance. We expect smooth sailing for anyone already running 4.2+ but it’s better safe than sorry. For those of you updating from older versions, please do review our [archive of release notes](https://www.liquidweb.com/category/products/release-notes/) for possible breaking changes that would require further testing. That said, let’s jump into the changelogs! ---
