Waterloo Region Event Feeds

Keep Up to Date with Waterloo Region Event Feeds

There are lots of events happening in Waterloo Region! It can be tough to track of them all. This is our attempt to help.

Below are some feeds we curate. You can use an RSS or iCal reader to subscribe to them. In addition some of our listings offer email newsletters and Twitter accounts.

These feeds are refreshed twice a day, so please do not hammer the server with update requests. Set your feed reader to check no more than once an hour (and preferably once a day).

For other aggregated events lists in Waterloo Region, check out our Friends page. For some interesting but obscure feeds produced by other organizations, check out Discovering Feeds.

Eventbrite

Eventbrite is an event management service popular in the area. We provide RSS and iCal feeds for events listed on the Things to Do in Waterloo pages, as well as a few local organizations that run virtual events. We split the feed into three parts:

• The main feeds include local, non-filtered events that are held in Waterloo Region, with some additional events in Guelph: (RSS Feed), (iCal Feed)
• We filter out some events from the main feed and publish them separately. These are mostly expensive technology training events that would otherwise flood the main feed, but if you are interested in 16 hours of Salesforce training, this is the feed for you: (RSS Feed), (iCal Feed)
• Finally, some events are virtual and do not have a location field, but are mostly held by local organizations. This list is not comprehensive; it mostly includes organizations useful to the feed maintainers: (RSS Feed), (iCal Feed)
