Event Calendar for a News Website

[Jason]

Hi,

I’m in the very beginning stages of designing a News website for a Vacation Destination City. This website will give visiting people to this city a place to discover “Things to do” and concentrate on Bar and Nightclub events.

Will The Events Calendar be the best choice to host events for up to 100 different Venues with multiple events per day per venue?

We will be using a News Template and hosting the website on our shared web server.

I currently work for a Venue that uses your Event Calendar but I’m not the Site designer or have any access to any Calendar settings.

Thank You
Jason Cruz

Hey Jason,

Thanks for reaching out! Glad to hear you’re looking into our plugins. 🙂

Yes, I do believe that The Events Calendar will do exactly what you’re looking for here. Even in the free version, you are able to create as many venues as you would like and associate those venues with any number of events. The plugin performs very well in and of itself, though, I would say that if you are publishing a huge number of events (in the thousands), then you may want to look into a dedicated server option for hosting. I would make that recommendation for any WordPress site, even with default Posts.

If you would like to have Venue and Organizer pages and other features, like recurring events and additional calendar views, then that where I would suggest looking into our Events Calendar PRO add-on, which extends The Events Calendar with those and more features.

Does this help answer your question? Please let me know. 🙂

Cheers!
Geoff

Hey there! This thread has been pretty quiet for the last three weeks, so we’re going to go ahead and close it to avoid confusion with other topics. If you’re still looking for help with this, please do open a new thread, reference this one and we’d be more than happy to continue the conversation over there.

Thanks so much!
