Some of the listing places we’ve added recently:

Seattle and Portland: East Side Scene, Newberg Graphic, Seattle New Music Concerts newsletter & website, Visit Seattle

As always, we welcome suggestions and will do our best to get them set up in time for your event.

We are also making minor updates to the website. You should not see any difference, except any bookmarks to the website that are not to the home page itself will need to be re-saved. If you do have any issues, try starting at the home page, http://www.fullcalendar.com and proceeding as usual. Of course, please let us know of any problems at support@fullcalendar.com

Some places we post events accept listings for kids’ summer camps, and some have a different process for them. Where there is a different process, FullCalendar doesn’t submit them, as they often have a fee or require information outside of our normal posting process. Here are some places where you can submit camp listings directly:

Koddler:

Bay Area Family Calendar (from Parents Press):

Bay Area Parent:

We add more as we find them. Here’s to summer!

Just a quick update to provide a selection of the new places we’ve been adding to our big list over the past few weeks:

Chicago: Blue Sky Innovation/Chicago Tribune, Chicago Kids
New York: New York Music Daily, NY Daily News, Nerd York City
Phoenix: KTAR.com, azfamily/KTVK
San Diego: NBC7 San Diego
Seattle: West Seattle Herald
SF Bay Area: 510 Families
Washington DC: BackPage N VA, BackPage S MD, Brightest Young Things, Washington Life
Multiple metros: Racked, Small Business Trends

As always, please let us know of places we may have missed, and we’ll do our best to add them in time for your event.

Hope this provides an idea of the types of events we help publicize: dance, music, tech, networking, health, benefits, family, and many more!

Here’s an update on the comings and goings of some national event calendar websites.

Zvents
Zvents, owned by eBay’s Stubhub, is now transitioning from a general event site to focus on arts and entertainment, more in line with Stubhub’s ticketing business. The Zvents site itself will be shutting down this fall. We’re told Stubhub will have an event calendar but we don’t know details. In the meantime, Zvents is only approving new venue submissions manually and individually, and due to their change in focus, we’re only submitting new arts & entertainment venues.

Eventful, SpinGo and others
Zvents has been providing the calendars for quite a few newspapers, and those have been transitioning to other providers, including Eventful and SpinGo. We have been posting to these already, and will continue to post to new service providers as we find them.

Upcoming
In a twist, the discontinued event site Upcoming, purchased by Yahoo in 2005 and discontinued in 2013, is being resurrected by its original founder, Andy Baio. Andy created a Kickstarter campaign to gauge interest and easily blew past his fundraising goals. FullCalendar contributed and will hear updates as it progresses. Its current plan is to launch mid-2015.
