Running something?

Send it in and a person will read it. We publish an event only once it has a date, a start time and a venue we can find — nothing goes up automatically.

How this calendar works

Most listings come from public calendars — the City of Boca Raton, Downtown Boca, the Boca Raton and Palm Beach County libraries, the Historical Society and FAU Athletics — and each one links to the organizer’s own page. Events sent to us directly are checked by a person before they appear. Times are Boca Raton local. A sponsored event sits in the hour it actually happens and carries a label — paying puts an event on the calendar, it does not move it up the day.

Something wrong?

A date that has moved, a venue that has closed, a listing that should not be here — tell us and we will fix it.
