Command a new search

Searches cost a flat $0.20 from your prepaid balance — log in below to search (a top-up activates your account). Every search adds events to the public map.

Searches run live web research in the background (in parallel — yours doesn’t wait for others) and expand the public map — existing events are never removed. Each search costs a flat $0.20 from your prepaid balance, or use focused bulk pricing (per event, for 300+ event sweeps), charged from the same balance (log in and top up to search; signing up requires a top-up — the PayPal fee is deducted from the credited balance; top up in the Account panel below). The admin searches free. A numbered dot (e.g. "38") marks several events at the same venue — click it to expand them into individual dots. The list beside the map shows the events in the current view; click one to fly to its dot.

The Map Digest

Your saved searches are only doing half their job. The Map Digest re-runs up to 3 of your saved searches every week while you sleep and emails you the new events — map, color-coded dots, and your pinned favorites highlighted in gold. One glance a week, and you never miss what’s coming.
