+We will demonstrate creating an EventBridge rule to run a Lambda function when a custom event is published to an event bus.

+### Create an EventBridge Bus
+
+First, create a custom EventBridge bus using the [`CreateEventBus`](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/cli/latest/reference/events/create-event-bus.html) API:
+
+```bash
+awslocal events create-event-bus \
+    --name my-custom-bus
+```
+
+While you can always use the default event bridge bus automatically available and configured for your account in any region, custom event buses are much more commonly used in practice and provide better organization for your events.
 
 ### Create a Lambda Function
 
 To create a new Lambda function, create a new file called `index.js` with the following code:
 
-```js showshowLineNumbers

 'use strict';
 
 exports.handler = (event, context, callback) => {

 ### Verify the Lambda invocation
 
 You can verify the Lambda invocation by checking the CloudWatch logs.
