Your event will be seen on this immensely popular platform, which is receiving massive and ever increasing levels of traffic, being very highly ranked in Google

Local publishers can log in and download all events from the HUB, including yours. These can then be published in their What’s On listings, giving you additional valuable paper marketing for your events

Firstly, you’re events get in front of thousands of people viewing the HUB to find out What’s On. People always want to know about interesting local events (over 860,000 views in 2014 alone!)

Secondly, by using the HUB, your events can also get downloaded by local publishers into their magazine and newspaper What’s On listings.

This means you can get additional and valuable paper exposure (many publishers have special admin access to download events from the Hub).

Thirdly, as major event information providers, the HUB also supplies filtered event data to many websites such as Tourist Information Centre websites, meaning your events can also appear in these channels simultaneously (we currently supply about 7 major websites - another one of the Hub’s free services)

Amazingly, yet more advantages...

Our filtered event data page can be plugged into external websites within minutes, giving even greater exposure for your events without any additional effort

Fourth, the HUB has event alerts. The public can subscribe (free) to receive alerts for the categories of event that they’ve chosen. Your event could come under one of the categories they’ve chosen, providing highly targeted, direct exposure by email!

Take control of your event promotion!
