What is an event listing?

Tourism Saskatchewan event listings are intended to help travellers discover events that may influence their decision to visit a destination, stay overnight, or extend their trip. An event listing highlights a specific event taking place at a set date and location. Events appear in Tourism Saskatchewan's event listings and are searchable by date and region.

Best practices for event listings

To help travellers plan effectively, event listings should include:

• Clear event dates and times
• Accurate location details
• A brief description of the event
• A website or contact information for more details
• Include any accessibility information that may help make the event more meaningful for people of all abilities
• We recommend submitting your event listing at least four weeks before the event start date for optimal promotion

Eligibility criteria

To qualify for inclusion, an event should meet the following criteria:

• Open to the general public
• A fixed date or period (e.g. November 12; July 4-7; March 15-22)
• Targeted marketing plan to draw regional, provincial, national and/or international markets
• A dedicated event website

Ineligible Events

• Ongoing or regularly scheduled programming such as exhibits or recurring programs are not eligible for an event listing
• Bookable visitor experiences, tours and other tourism activities may qualify as travel offers
• Business-focused events such as seminars, training sessions, tradeshows, workshops, etc
• Fundraisers such as raffles, 50/50s, golf tournaments, steak nights, etc.
• Commercial events such as business openings or store sales events

• Events entirely hosted by and focused on local/nearby residents
