Key takeaways

The short version.

  • Local Events Tracker finds upcoming events near you and sends a daily email digest.
  • It is a free tracker with its own site, localeventstracker.com, and it is free during the beta.
  • You choose what to watch, so the digest follows your interests instead of a generic list.
  • You can get alerts by text, by email, or in your favorite AI, such as a personal AI like Instinct or Muse.
  • The app reports what is coming; you decide what to attend and what to book.

Who it is for

Why do I always find out about the festival after it ends?

  • Most people have had this moment.

  • Seasonal events make this worse.

  • Local Events Tracker is for people who want to attend more of what happens in their city but do not want a new habit.

Most people have had this moment. A friend mentions the lantern night, the harvest market or the street food weekend, and it finished three days ago. Nobody hid it. The news was just spread across venue pages, social posts, flyers and group chats, and none of them reached you at the right time.

Seasonal events make this worse. They come around once a year, so you do not think to check. Dates shift, programmes get announced late, and the good ones are often only a few days long. Checking five sites every week is a chore, so most of us stop.

Local Events Tracker is for people who want to attend more of what happens in their city but do not want a new habit. You say what you want to watch, and it sends a daily email digest of upcoming events near you. If you use a personal AI, it also offers an MCP connection, described on its own site, so your assistant can bring events into the conversations you already have.

Use cases

4 ways people use Festivals and seasonal events by city.

  1. Weekend roundup

    1. Catching a weekend full of concerts and a food festival

    Situation: it is Thursday, you have no plans, and you would like to do something on Saturday without scrolling for an hour.

    The tracker sends an alert saying what is new near you this weekend, for example three new concerts and a food festival, and tells you your daily digest is ready. You open the digest, see the whole list in one place, pick the festival, and invite a friend before the weekend fills up.

  2. Yearly events

    2. Planning around a seasonal event that only comes once a year

    Situation: your city has an autumn or winter event you enjoyed once and then forgot about until it was over.

    Because you have chosen to watch for events near you, new listings show up in your daily digest as they appear. The alert tells you something new has been found, and you decide what to do next: put the date in your calendar, check the details on the organiser's page, and sort out time off or a babysitter early.

  3. Guests arriving

    3. Finding something to do when visitors are in town

    Situation: family is visiting next week and you want one or two things that feel local, not just the usual sights.

    Check the digest to see what is coming up near you during their stay. The alert gives you a short list to react to, and you can pick an event that suits everyone, then confirm times with the organiser before you commit.

  4. Ask your AI

    4. Asking your personal AI what is on this month

    Situation: you plan your week by talking to a personal AI, and you want events in that same flow.

    Local Events Tracker offers an MCP connection for AI assistants, described on its own site. Once it is set up, you can ask your assistant what is coming up and fold the answer into your plans, such as picking a free evening for a festival.
