Listings are Welcome for the Tourist & Town
Calendar of Events in Southern MaineThere is no charge to publicize events on www.touristandtown.com or
Tourist & Town in print. The calendar deadline is 14 days before the issue date.
With so many wonderful calendar items coming our way, our goal is to publicize as many as possible while staying true to our standards for submissions. Following is our Calendar/Activities policy:
Only events submitted by non-profit organizations will be considered for publication in Tourist & Town's Calendar and Activities sections. Events submitted by for-profit organizations and businesses will only be published in conjunction with paid advertising.
Listings must include title, date/time, location, host/sponsor, description and contact information, and website if possible. Examples of appropriate Calendar/Activities submissions include, but are not limited to, community fundraisers, festivals, arts events, cultural events, educational offerings, community service events, and information sessions. Submissions are considered carefully, in terms of suitability for publication. We may edit information for consistency.
If you want your event to be considered for a feature story, send info EARLY and include a contact name and phone number/e-mail address. Please send a schedule of all, or at least, your major events, for the entire year (or as far ahead as you have them planned). It helps with editorial planning and ensures that your event has maximum exposure. We go to press Monday afternoon. Delivery begins Monday night and is completed by Wednesday. Issue dates are always Thursday.
