How to find Christmas events
During the holiday season, there is nothing better than gathering with family or friends and going to a local event such as an ice skating rink, an outdoor movie, Christmas markets, or tree lighting ceremonies. Sometimes it’s hard to locate these events and that’s what this article is for. Below are a few resources to look into:
Online event calendars: Check out online event sites such as Eventbrite or Meetup and they will usually have calendars with local events. Another resource may be local tourism websites such as Travel Advisor which may have a calendar of activities as well.
Local newspapers and magazines: Whether you receive a physical newspaper or view it online, your city newspaper will likely have upcoming Christmas events listed in the calendar or events section. Local newspapers are a great resource in general for events and interesting things happening in your area!
Local community centers or libraries: Many libraries or local community centers not only host Christmas events in your area, but they also share any other events that may be happening in the area. To find this information you can look on their websites or visit in person and speak with the people at the help desks.
Social Media: To spread the word about upcoming events, many local businesses, shops, or restaurants will post on Social Media. Find the pages for your community center, chamber of commerce, Parks and Recreation, or any other organizations and keep an eye out for posts about upcoming events.
Local TV stations or radio: Many local businesses pay to have their events broadcasted on either radio or TV. Checkout your local stations and listen for any updates for activities happening in your area.
I hope this article helps you locate events happening in your area. This Christmas season, find some amazing events to attend with those that matter most to you and have a wonderful time. Happy holidays!
