Import and curation
How the events hub stays current
The calendar combines approved public submissions, admin-created listings and imported organiser feeds.
Step 1
Feed import
Known organiser, council and ticketing feeds are checked weekly, with optional extra feed URLs for new venues.
Step 2
Admin curation
Imported and submitted events are reviewed in admin so the public calendar only shows approved listings.
Step 3
Reader updates
The hub, detail pages and RSS feed expose upcoming approved events for search, subscribers and local partners.
Default import sources
The weekly importer includes council, tourism, organiser and ticketing sources by default. Extra ICS, RSS, JSON, WordPress REST, Spektrix or schema.org Event URLs can be added through the feed configuration.
