causing presentation of a graphical representation of the third event participation flow in the user interface displayed by the client device.

3. The method of claim 1, wherein the size of the one or more elements of the graphical representation represent a quantity of participants in one or more events.

4. The method of claim 3, wherein the modifying of the graphical representation of the second event participation flow further includes removing one or more graphical elements of the graphical representation of the second event participation flow.

5. The method of claim 3, wherein the modifying of the graphical representation of the second event participation flow further includes modifying a size of one or more graphical elements of the graphical representation of the second event participation flow.

6. The method of claim 3, wherein the modifying of the graphical representation of the second event participation flow further includes grouping two or more graphical elements of the graphical representation of the second event participation flow into a single element.

7. The method of claim 3, wherein the filter includes one of:

a participant filter specifying a participant attribute, or

an event attribute specifying an event attribute.

8. The method of claim 7, wherein the participant attribute is a selection from the group comprising:

gender, age, location, and income level.

9. The method of claim 1, further comprising:

accessing event data stored in a network database, the event data including a plurality of event data records, each of the plurality of event data records corresponding to an event and including a set of participant identifiers corresponding to participants in the event;

determining the first and second event participation flows based on the event data.

10. The method of claim 1, wherein the graphical representation of the first event participation flow includes at least one of:

an indication of a number of participants that participated in the first event without participating in a preceding event; and

an indication of a number of participants that participated in the first event without participating in a subsequent event.

11. The method of claim 1, wherein:

a width of the second graphical element represents the quantity of participants of the second event that participated in the first event; and

a width of the fourth graphical element represents the quantity of participants of the third event that participated in the second event.

12. The method of claim 1, wherein the graphical representation of the second event participation flow includes a fifth graphical element representing two or more events, each of the two or more events having a number of participants below a predefined threshold.

13. A system comprising:

at least one processor of a machine; and

a machine-readable medium storing instructions that, when executed by the at least one processor of a machine, cause the machine to perform operations comprising;

causing display, on a client device, of a user interface comprising a graphical representation of a first event participation flow, the first event participation flow including a transition of participation from one or more preceding events to a first event and from the first event to one or more subsequent events, the graphical representation of the first event participation flow comprising;

a first graphical element representing a second event; and

a second graphical element representing a quantity of participants of the second event that participated in the first event;
