We are publicizing online/virtual events – live and/or recorded. We are adding listing places where we couldn’t post before, and have cut some places that have not moved to online events. Enter your event as normal and for the venue, enter what you’d like the listing to say, eg, Livestream, Virtual, On demand, etc. Please enter the event’s city to indicate its time zone. Note: many listing places are focusing on local organizations’ online offerings, even though events could be viewed anywhere. Any questions, contact us.

3/9/20: Cancelling/postponing your event(s)?
If you are cancelling/postponing your event due to virus-related issues, please email us at support@fullcalendar.com to let us know. We will do our best to help you communicate this. We also suggest posting on your website and/or ticket link what the event’s status is, confirming that it’s still on, cancelled, or in flux.

11/11/16: Resource: VenueBook
VenueBook is a venue directory that allows event organizers to get online quotes, book a venue and pay online. Venues include bars and restaurants, galleries, theaters, lofts and private event venues. Currently it has 429 venues in the NYC metro, 118 in the SF bay area, 109 in the DC area, and 88 in Chicagoland. There is also an option for venues to offer complete packages, usually meals, but also art or culinary activities. We don’t know more about it, just mentioning it in case it’s of interest to you, either as an organizer or a venue.
11/2/16: Hurry! Get your holiday events listed now!
Now’s the time to get your holiday events submitted to FullCalendar, or directly to media if you’re not using FullCalendar. Editors want them early to compile lists of holiday things to do, and your audience wants to know when their favorite concerts and holiday fairs are, so they can plan ahead. Happy Holidays!
3/29/16: Additional ways to promote your event
We’ve just added a way for event organizers to learn about additional free and paid ways to publicize their event. FullCalendar sends listings, but many places where we send your listing will also hold ticket giveaways and other free options, and offer a wide range of paid options such as featuring your event more prominently on their site or emails, and/or their social media accounts.
When you enter an event, on page 3 (now called Enter posting instructions), you’ll be able to choose whether to receive this information, and how you’d like to receive it. There is an option to hide your email address, using a unique FullCalendar email that forwards to your own.
The rest of that page has been re-ordered so that the most commonly used sections come before sections less commonly used.
Please let us know any questions about this new feature at support@fullcalendar.com and we hope you find it useful.
