When Should you Have the Event?

The date you choose to have your event is crucial. To help you decide, ponder over some of these points.

Think Think Think

  • When are my target audience usually free, and willing to come to events
  • what time of day, evening or night,
  • which day of the week, which time of year?
  • Are there any religious holidays
  • major school holiday times
  • major sporting events or final exams or other events that might compete with my event?
  • Are any other organisations holding a similar event at the same time? Do a web search and other forms of research to make sure.

Link Up!

  • Is there anything else going on that you could link your event up to? (religious holidays or other events)
