Quote

"We track 234 confirmed events across Brisbane this month, spread across 136 venues. The busiest single day is Saturday 10 October. Visitors consistently underestimate how much is on midweek — the weekend gets the attention, but the calendar does not stop."
— William Pawson, founder, SunnyLink

How these numbers are counted

  • An event is counted once it has a confirmed date, a venue and a public listing.
  • Duplicates across sources are merged on venue, title and start time before counting.
  • Recurring weekly listings are counted separately from dated one-off events, and both are shown.
  • Counts cover the calendar month in Australia/Brisbane time.
  • Figures are recounted daily from the live catalogue. No estimates or projections are used.
  • Counts are absolute. We do not publish month-on-month percentage changes, because our catalogue's coverage has itself been expanding — a rise would partly measure our own ingestion rather than more events happening. The table above gives the raw figures so you can judge for yourself.
