How to remove past events

Past events still show up on the events homepage.

I searched the forum and the topic was mentioned before, but no solution was given.

Is there a solution? Or do I have to delete them manually on the administration site?

lol yup... one by one Maybe in 7.2 it will be fixed.

What you can do is change php code lil bit in query.
only show events with event date is before(after) current date.
