After you get a successful “event published” message from the event upload form, your event will be published to the community calendar. You can visit that screen and either browse to the day or search for the event in order to see its details.

Send us an email, let us know what needs to change and we’ll get it updated. Thanks for keeping your event’s details current for the community!

If your event runs over multiple days, you have a couple of options for how you can list it.

• My Event Happens at the Same Time Over Multiple Concurrent Days.
  In this case, enter the start date & end date plus the start time and end time.
• My Event Doesn’t Run Over Concurrent Days but it Does Repeat at the Same Time on a Regular Basis.
  After entering the first occurrence, check the “Event Repeating” box and then select the appropriate schedule for it (daily, weekly, monthly, every weekend, etc). In this view you can also select how long the event will repeat for (either a specific end date or a number of occurrences).
  • By default all occurrences of the event will appear on the community calendar. If you only want the event to appear once, check the box for Show only one occurrence of this event.
• My Event Happens at Different Times Over Multiple Days or My Event Does Not Run Over Concurrent Days.
  In this case, enter the start date & time of the first occurrence of the event and then check the “Event Repeating” box. Select the Custom option and then enter the exact day(s), start and end time(s) of each repeating occurrence.

Big Gay Hudson Valley believes that the value of our community is its diversity and inclusion: Everyone is better off when we’re all able to enjoy the best that the area has to offer. Events uploaded to the community calendar should be relevant to the local LGBTQ+ community, meaning they:

• Are happening locally (we know the Hudson Valley is a big place but we generally try to keep coverage all along the Hudson River & its adjoining counties plus the Catskills)
• Feature or are relevant to LGBTQ+ people, themes, content, or subject matter
• Celebrate the diversity of the Hudson Valley’s offerings, meaning they may happen in a diversity of places
• Are open for the general public to attend (knowing, of course, that tickets or an admission fee may apply)

All events are subject to Big Gay Hudson Valley’s Terms & Conditions and can be removed at any time at the discretion of Big Gay Hudson Valley.

Nope – uploading an event to the calendar is free.
