Key takeaways

The short version.

  • It finds concerts, games and shows near a ZIP code or city that match your interests.
  • It checks once a day and tells you about new events and changes by email, phone notification, or your AI assistant.
  • It never invents events or prices. A missing price is treated as unknown, not free.
  • An event that disappears from results is not treated as cancelled.
  • The free plan needs no payment, and you can connect Claude, ChatGPT or other apps that accept a remote connector.

It is for anyone who keeps missing things until the day after: the concert you only heard about once it sold out, the game night you would have taken the kids to, the comedy show that came to town last month. If you want a quiet daily summary of what is new near you, this is the job it does.

It suits music fans, sports fans, parents looking for family events, people who like theatre and film, and anyone planning a weekend or a trip. You pick a ZIP code or city, a distance, and the kinds of events you care about. You can also name artists or teams to follow.

It is a tracker, not a ticket seller. It reports what it finds and links each event to its official ticket page, where you check availability and price yourself.

Use cases

5 ways people use LocalEventsTracker.com.

  1. New concert listings

    1. How do I hear about concerts near me before I would otherwise notice?

    Set your ZIP code and a distance between 10 and 100 miles, then choose music and the genres you like, such as rock, jazz or classical. The tracker looks again each day and tells you when something new matches.

    Once you have signed up, the first look at your area is treated as a starting point, so you are not flooded with every show already on sale. After that you hear about what is new.

  2. Follow artists and teams

    2. Can it follow a favorite artist or team?

    Add an artist or a team to your watchlist and it keeps an eye out for their events near you. Sports categories include basketball and soccer, and there are theatre, opera, comedy, family and film categories too.

    A watchlist is a saved search. The free plan includes 3 watchlists, up to 25 interests and 2 places, so you can follow a few things at home and one other city.

  3. Change alerts

    3. What if an event changes or gets postponed?

    The tracker compares what it sees from one day to the next. When a listing you are watching changes, for example a new date, a new time, a different venue or a cancellation reported by the source, it appears in your alerts with the old and new values.

    It is careful about what it claims. An event that simply goes missing from results is not reported as cancelled, because only the source can cancel an event. Always confirm on the official page before you change plans.

  4. Ask your assistant

    4. How do I plan a weekend with my AI assistant?

    If you connect Claude, ChatGPT or another app that accepts a remote connector, you can ask in plain language what is new near you this weekend, or what changed on the events you saved. The assistant reads the tracker's results rather than guessing.

    You can tell it what you like and do not like, and it uses that to rank suggestions. If you share your free times, it can leave out events that clash with your calendar.

  5. Away from home

    5. What about planning for a trip?

    Search by city or ZIP code for a place you are visiting and see what is on while you are there. Prices are shown only when the source publishes them; when it does not, the price is unknown, and the official event page is the place to check.

How to

How do I set it up?

  1. Step 1

    Go to [LocalEventsTracker.com](https://localeventstracker.com) and choose Get free alerts.

  2. Step 2

    Enter your email, your ZIP code or city, and a search distance from 10 to 100 miles. Add interests, artists or teams if you like.

  3. Step 3

    Confirm your email address from the link in the message you receive. Every email has one-click unsubscribe.

  4. Step 4

    Optional: for phone notifications, add the free ntfy app and subscribe with the private link the site gives you after sign-up.

  5. Step 5

    Optional: to use an AI assistant, create a free access key on the site. Apps that take only a link use your private connector link; others use the general connector link with your key.

Checks run once a day, so alerts are not instant. Text message alerts are reserved for a Premium plan that is coming soon. Treat your private links like passwords.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions.

Is LocalEventsTracker.com free?

Yes. The free plan covers event search, alerts, up to 25 interests, 2 places and 3 watchlists, and no payment is needed today. A Premium plan is listed as coming soon, with more watchlists, interests and places, more refreshes and text alerts. Its price has not been announced. Every email has a one-click unsubscribe link.

Where do the events come from?

Today the tracker uses one source, the Ticketmaster Discovery listings, and links each event to its official ticket page. Events from other sources will not appear, so coverage can be thin in some places.

Does it sell tickets or say if an event is sold out?

No. It does not sell tickets and makes no claim about availability. Prices and availability can change at any time, so check the official page. An event that disappears from your results is not reported as cancelled, because only the source can cancel it.

How quickly will I hear about something new?

It checks once a day, so you hear about new events and changes in the next daily digest, not the moment they happen.

Which AI assistants work with it?

Claude, ChatGPT and other apps that accept a remote connector, using your free access key or private connector link. Check your assistant's own help pages for how it adds a connector.
