Upcoming Destinations
A friend of mine recently used Upcoming to help plan his trip to Germany. He discovered that, despite the language barrier, blending into the local crowd, sampling new music like
Apparatschik, and meeting some neat (English-speaking) folks was easier with Upcoming.
With a trip to New York in September, I've been glued to Upcoming's events out there. And it turns out no matter how far in advance the travel plans are, Upcoming can help me plan a travel itinerary that's interesting to me. When I discovered the
Beirut show, it was over five months away. And just a week ago, I found
Spin Out -- a knitter's meet-up in Central Park!

Got a trip planned? Use the change your location widget on the Upcoming homepage to explore events happening before you get there. Then browse the calendar to your travel dates and, if you'd like, narrow your search results by category.
They call you Verbose.
Also, might be worth a read to see people's feedback; and nick a few things for Upcoming. *evil laugh*
