Event Industry Insights
A practical read on public event activity.
Bewitt reviews public event listings to spot practical patterns: where events show up, how early they are announced, what formats are common, and how often prices or size clues are visible.
5,574 listings, 7.8% of the listings reviewed.
Among 51,169 listings with usable event dates.
4,964 listings showed a public ticket price.
Event volume
Observed listings by event month
This shows public listings by event month for 2026. It is useful for spotting visible activity, not for counting every event in the market.
Geography
Most visible countries
Across the listings reviewed, United Kingdom currently appears most often.
Categories
Common category tags
Some event pages use more than one category, so this shows what organizers are likely to see while browsing public listings.
Discovery
Discovery lead-time bands
This shows how far ahead of the event date listings were found. It does not always match when registration first opened.
Pricing
Price visibility
Many event pages do not show prices clearly, so this only covers listings where a public ticket price was visible. Amounts stay in their listed currency.
Event size
Published size clues
Some listings mention capacity, attendee counts, or registration numbers. We keep those separate because many public pages do not show size at all.

Ask me about the patterns on this page: prices, lead time, cities, formats, audiences, or what these numbers should and should not be used for.

Reading the data
Directional, useful, and intentionally cautious.
These insights come from public event listings, so they are a guide, not a perfect count of every event. They are best used to spot patterns and ask better planning questions.
This first set of insights starts on June 15, 2026. As coverage improves, future reports may include an earlier cutoff date for comparison.
Some event pages are rich; others are sparse. That is why we describe these numbers as visible patterns, not final market totals.
Hybrid and online labels are only counted when the public listing makes that clear.
Price and event-size numbers are based on listings that actually show those details.
78.5% of the listings reviewed carried this category.
The most common topic we could identify from event titles, descriptions, and categories.
Public listings already visible in next year's report.
We show totals, ranges, and shares. We do not publish individual event sources or organizer details here.
