Pick the best date
Events › Pick a date (or Help me pick a date in the form): say what you are planning and where, and see how busy it is, which days and times work there, and the three best dates with their reasons.
For organisers. You need an organisation first.
Step by step
Step 1: What you are planning
Kind, topics, venue or town, month, time of day, how many.
Step 2: How busy it is
The month week by week, holidays and big venue nights marked.
Step 3: When it works
Which days and times draw more people for that kind of event there.
Step 4: Not enough history
Said plainly, with dates from busy-ness and holidays.
Step 5: Use a date
One press fills the date and time.
Tips
Patterns only show from at least ten past events by at least five organisers, so no one’s events can be picked out.
Not enough history yet? It says so and uses how busy the area is and the holidays.
From the form, Use this date fills the date and time; from Events it opens Add an event with them.
