CREATE YOUR OWN EVENTS!
- Simply search for a place – a restaurant, coffee shop, theater – ANYPLACE and bookmark it.
- Create a name and time for the event and invite your followers.
- You will receive an RSVP from the invitees, all within the app.
EVENTS ARE DYNAMIC and created by YOU: THE PEOPLE.
Events are created by ANYONE who has an event on their radar they want to share (a grand opening, or a cool show); or anyone who wants to announce their own event – from a private brunch with grandma to a public notification announcing their “Tequila Mockingbird” house party.
And once the event is over? The event pin is automatically deactivated.
