Finding local events

The way people expect to discover local events.

Residents and visitors get a local guide built around how they already look for things to do. Supercompressor brings trusted sources together proactively, so smaller events and community activities are easier to find alongside major attractions.

  • Search by date, category, venue, neighbourhood, or interest
  • Browse what’s happening tonight, this weekend, with family, or close to home
  • Proactive source coverage, complemented by organiser and community updates
Visitor experience

Give visitors more reasons to explore.

Visitors should not have to know which venue site or community calendar to check. One regional guide helps them plan with confidence and discover more once they arrive, while giving tourism teams a stronger way to showcase local activity.

  1. Before the trip Plan around what is actually happening

    Events for the dates they are visiting help people plan with confidence before they arrive.

  2. During the visit Find something to do now

    Search by date, area, category or venue makes it easy to add plans in the moment.

  3. Across the region Discover beyond major attractions

    Community events and local venues help visitors explore more neighbourhoods and places.

Wider local impact

See where major events may create more opportunity.

Major events can create activity well beyond the venue. Seeing a busy date alongside nearby events gives teams a reason to check visitor information, local business opportunities and public space plans.
