What I really appreciated was knowing how deep your higher ed experience was. We didn’t have to explain certain things like how complicated campus communities can be or why accessibility was important, that was all just understood.

Events shouldn’t live in a dozen calendars, social media channels, and inboxes. Bring all of your campus events into one centralized, searchable calendar built for the way your community discovers what’s happening.
Give departments, student groups, and campus partners a quick, easy way to submit their events. Collect the right details upfront and spend less time chasing information. Someone with the appropriate permissions must approve every submission before the event goes live on the events calendar.
Set permissions once and route every submission to the right people. Reviewers can accept, reject, or request edits from their own queue of events.
Give students one branded place to explore what’s happening on campus. With simple filters, engaging event pages, and easy ways to show interest, discovery turns into participation.
Your central team shouldn’t have to create and update every campus event. Give departments control over their own events, without the clutter of events from other teams. And allow student group leaders to submit events for approval.
Localist brings events together without asking every department to abandon the tools that keep campus running. Import events from existing systems and publish them where your audience can actually find them.
Go beyond page views. See which events are gaining traction, how audiences find them, and nudge interested attendees to show up on event day. Send post event surveys on key events to gauge how attendees felt about their experience and uncover insights to make future events even better.

“One of our goals is to show the vibrant life on campus. An empty events calendar harmed the University’s image. We needed a system that was more efficient, so people would use it. When you’re at a university with daily events, you can’t afford to spend 15-20 minutes putting each event in different calendars. Now, we just do it once.”

“Of all the event calendars that we looked at, Localist Events had the best, most modern interface out of the box. We were also impressed that Localist Events would give us access to so many expert-level options within their HTML Theme Editor, so we could match our calendar to our website.”
