Where the events come from

  • Organisers. Organisers submit their events, or host them here with a free event page and RSVPs.
  • Community calendars. Public Luma calendar feeds, read as they update.
  • Partner event feeds. Events shared with us by partners, labelled as such.
  • Flagship events, researched by hand. The big dates that have no feed of their own, added from the organiser's own page.

Every listing names where it came from and links back to the original. Event sources & provenance →

How listings are checked

  • Every listing links to where it was published. For an event run elsewhere, that page has the final word on dates, venues and registration.
  • Events we curate by hand are researched twice. Flagship dates and listings flagged as wrong are checked against the organiser's own page, then independently re-checked before the correction goes live.
  • No invented crowds. Attendance appears only as the organiser's own figure or as an estimate labelled “~ expected”.
  • Readers can report errors. Every event page has a report button for a wrong date or venue, a dead link or a cancelled event.
