Build the ultimate local guide

You do not book the bands or run the rooms. You just know what is on. This is the page that proves it.

The desk

You do not create the events. You decide what makes the page.

A curator schedule owns nothing of its own. Every event on it belongs to somebody else: the venue that booked it, the performer playing it, the organiser who typed it in at midnight. What you bring is the judgement about which of them is worth somebody's Friday.

Event Schedule is built that way on purpose. Events arrive from the schedules that name your guide as their curator, from the submission form on your page, and from whatever you paste in yourself. You accept, you file, you publish. After that the guide keeps filling itself while you get on with covering the scene.

The curator's toolkit

Everything happening, in one place

Lead story · AI import Free

Paste the text. Or drop the flyer.

Copy an announcement straight out of a group chat, or drag in a photo of a poster taped to a lamp post. The name, date, time, venue and price come back filled in and waiting for you to check. It reads several events out of a single image, and it does not care what language the poster is in.

Pasted text Flyer photos Several events at once Any language
Also in the toolkit Plan
Venues publish straight to your guide Free

A venue that follows your guide can name it a default curator. Everything they post then lands in your queue.

Never list the same thing twice Free

When something you paste in is already on Event Schedule, one click lists that event instead of a second copy.

A submission inbox you control Free

Readers send you events through the form on your page. Nothing reaches the public page until you accept it.

Trusted sources skip the queue Free

Approve a venue once and everything they send after that publishes straight through.

File every event under a section Free

Sort what arrives into sub-schedules: music, markets, kids, whatever your guide needs.

Merge duplicate venues Free

Ten submitters spell the same room ten ways. Merge them back into one in a single place.

Email the week to your readers Free

Following the guide is permission to email. You write the newsletter and send it: ten recipients a month free, a hundred on Pro.

Embed it on the site you have Free

Drop the calendar straight into your blog or your organisation page.

Schedule graphics Pro

Build one shareable image out of what is coming up. Events need their own flyer to appear, and twenty of them fit.

Your own domain Enterprise

Run the guide on your own address instead of a subdomain.

The inbox

Nothing goes to print without you.

Every submission waits in the queue until you accept or decline it. Once you trust a venue, put them on your approved list and their events publish straight through, so the queue only ever holds the things you actually need to read.

From the mailbag

Already running this in a group chat?

If you are already posting what is on into a WhatsApp group, a Facebook group or a mailing list, you are a curator. You just do not have an archive.

A group is good for conversation, but posts sink. Nobody joining next month will ever scroll back far enough to find what you wrote today.

And so

A guide is a permanent address anybody can find and link to. Keep the group for the chat. Put one link in it, and let the archive do the rest.

One link to share

Post the guide once instead of every event twice.

A standing archive

Readers can browse what is coming and what already happened.

Reach past the group

Anyone can find the guide, not only the people already in the room.

Advertisement

Not everything on your guide has an address.

An online event carries a link instead of a venue, and it lists on your guide exactly like everything else.

Everything curators ask first

Is Event Schedule free for event curators?

Yes. Aggregating events, running the approval inbox, building a following and syncing with Google, Outlook or CalDAV are all free forever. Schedule graphics and removing our branding are on the Pro plan, and your own domain is on Enterprise.

How do events get onto my guide?

Three ways. A venue or performer who follows your guide can name it a default curator, and everything they schedule then lands in your queue. Visitors can submit an event through the form on your page, signed in by default. And you can add events yourself, by hand or by pasting in text or a photo of a flyer.

Can I control which events appear on my schedule?

Yes. Submitted events wait in your inbox until you accept or decline them, so nothing reaches the public page without your say-so. If you trust a source, add their schedule to your approved list and their events publish straight through.

What happens when an event is already on Event Schedule?

You are offered the existing one. Paste in something the site already knows about and the importer flags the match, so a single click lists that event on your guide instead of creating a second copy, and the listing keeps pointing back at the schedule that owns it. Draft and private events are never offered, so nothing unpublished can end up on your page.

How do people discover my curated schedule?

Share your schedule link on social media, embed the calendar on your blog or website, and let search engines index the page. Readers who follow the guide are giving you permission to email them, so a newsletter with the highlights of the week is yours to send whenever you like.
