Submit an Event

If it happens in Carroll, Lee, Ogle or Whiteside County, it belongs on the Northwest Illinois calendar.

Festivals, live music, farmers markets, theater, fundraisers, tree lightings — send us the details and we’ll put it in front of the visitors already planning a trip here. There is no charge.

Events appear after review, usually within two business days. A member of our team reads every submission, checks the details and publishes it — so nothing goes live the moment you press the button. Anything outside the four counties, or already past, won’t be published.

The event

Only for events that run more than one day.

Two or three sentences. This is what visitors read on the calendar.

About you

Only so we can check details — it never appears on the site.
