For event organizers

Here's exactly where your event will go.

In front of locals who already trust our recommendations.

01 · In the directory

Pinned to the top of every directory you choose.

Each of our 400 locations runs its own events directory. Submit to one, submit to ten, submit to all 400 — your event pins to the top of every directory you pick, on every day you pick.

Every newsletter we send links to its directory, so the pin keeps working long after you submit.

04 — This week's calendar
Our favorite events this week

Seven things on our list, plus the live music lineup.

🎻Socks in the Frying Pan @ Spanish Ballroom | Friday (5/9) at 7:30 PM — Traditional Irish tunes, tight harmonies, and toe-tapping.
🎈Pop-In Playdate @ Tacoma Nazarene Church | Saturday (5/10) at 10:00 AM — Parenting may be a marathon, but this pop-in playdate hands you a caffeine station and snacks.
02 · The full placement

Pinned in the directory, and inside the email.

The $25 tier stacks both placements together. Your event keeps its pin at the top of every directory you pick — and it also lives directly inside the daily newsletter for those locations, on those days.

That's how readers see most of what we recommend — restaurants, art, civic stuff. Now your event too.

Why this works

Our readers opted in because they trust our recommendations.

A BaseLocal editor in your location reviews every event before it runs. That's how we've kept the trust.

A few common questions

Who reviews submissions?

A BaseLocal editor in your location. We approve most submissions; we turn down anything that doesn't fit the audience. If your event is rejected, you get a full refund.

How does pricing across locations work?

Per event, per location, per day. A three-day market in Tacoma and Olympia is six units — $60 for directory only, or $150 for directory + newsletter. The price stays linear.

Can I edit the event after I submit?

Yes — minor edits to time, copy, or image any time before the run starts. Date and location changes go through the editor.

Can I cancel?

Cancel up to 48 hours before a day's run for a full refund of that day. Inside the 48-hour window, the day is locked in.

How long does review take?

Most submissions are approved within 24 hours. We'll email you when your event is live.
