If its the venue you need to block out, select the venue.

If its a specific staff members calendar choose staff > then choose their name.

Then click any open space > use the time blocking toggle at the top right of the pop up > choose whether to make this a recurring block > add the time and the optional description > Save.

Your time block will look like this.
