How our Event Calendars work

We have built exceptional event calendar technology allowing users to post with one service and send those events across our network, all based on categories and locations. Your event calendar could be for skiing events in Vail, or all categories of events in Vancouver, or all categories across the world!

How it works

1. You sign up to host an Evvnt calendar on one of your pages (see Sign Up Online - Evvnt Calendars)
2. Users that arrive at your calendar page can submit their events (see How to submit an event)
3. They become your marketing customer (see Sales CRM - How it works) with access to our services to promote their event
4. You earn revenue when they upgrade their event, schedule an Evvnt email, or sell tickets with Evvnt Ticketing (See all of the promotion options here: Promote your event from a calendar)

Event Calendar Sections

The Evvnt Calendar displays events in 3-4 different sections based on event status. See the sections detailed below. Each section that has a heading or badge option can be customized by editing the calendar's Theme.

Editor's Picks

The Editor's Pick section will only show if it is enabled in the Site Settings and if there are active events on your calendar marked as "Editor's Picks". The section will appear at the top of the calendar when enabled. You can edit the name of the section and the badge text by editing the calendar's Theme.

Featured Events

This section will show events that have paid to have this status. The Featured status can also be manually set by an editor for no charge. This section of your calendar will show when there are 3 or more active events marked as featured.

Local Events (aka Promoted Events)

This section will show all events that are submitted to the Evvnt system and assigned to your calendar. Here are details about how an event is accepted on your calendar: How Your Calendar Accepts Events. You can change this heading's text by editing the calendar's Theme.

Other Events

This section is for events that have been pulled into a calendar from outside data sources, like TicketMaster or Bandsintown. These can be modified for your calendar. More info here: Backfill Data Sources. If you would like to move any event from this section in the "Local Events" section, then you can Claim and Edit the event.
