How to Submit Your Event to Vero Vine (The Right Way)

A quick-start guide to make sure your event stands out and gets the attention it deserves

If you’re planning a local event, getting it featured on Vero Vine is one of the easiest and most effective ways to boost attendance. But not all submissions are created equal.

To help your event stand out and increase your chances of getting featured on the homepage, newsletter, and social media, here’s a quick guide to submitting it the right way.

1. Start with a Strong, Specific Title
Your event title should do more than state the obvious. It should capture attention and clearly communicate what the event is. Avoid vague or generic titles.

Instead of: “Live Music”
Use: “Sunset Sounds: Live Acoustic Music at the Riverside Pavilion”

Strong titles get more clicks, shares, and interest. Think about what makes your event unique and lead with that.

2. Include a High-Quality Image or Flyer
The first thing people notice is the image. Make sure it’s:

  • Clear and not pixelated
  • Properly sized (landscape or square preferred)
  • Free of too much text
  • Visually appealing and relevant to the event

This is your visual hook—make it count.

3. Write a Short, Compelling Description
Don’t just list the time and place—describe the experience. Think of it like an elevator pitch for your event. Use 2-3 sentences to answer:

  • What is it?
  • Who is it for?
  • Why should they care?

Example: “Join us for a relaxing evening of jazz and craft cocktails at one of Vero’s favorite hidden gems. Featuring live performances, drink specials, and a cozy outdoor vibe.”

4. Add All Key Event Details Clearly
Make sure the following are included and correct:

  • Date and time
  • Location name and full address
  • Ticket price or entry info (even if it’s free)
  • RSVP or ticket link (if applicable)
  • Contact info or website for more details

Double-check for typos or missing info. If it’s not clear, people won’t attend.

5. Submit Early for Maximum Exposure
The sooner you submit your event, the better chance it has of being picked up for additional coverage. We recommend submitting at least two weeks in advance.

This gives us time to include it in our email newsletter, highlight it on social media, or even feature it in a special roundup.

6. Use a Real Contact Name and Email
We may reach out with questions or to ask for more info. Make sure the contact listed on your submission is someone who can respond quickly and provide what’s needed.

7. Promote Alongside Vero Vine’s Listing
Once your event is published, share the Vero Vine link on your social channels. This not only boosts your reach but also tells the algorithm (and us) that your event is active and relevant.

The more polished and professional your event listing is, the more visibility it will get. Treat your Vero Vine submission like your first impression—because it is.
