Calendar Event Listings

Listing of Free or Low Cost Events on the Local Macaroni Kid Calendar is FREE.

By Julie Dikken, Publisher of Evergreen.Macaronikid.com and Arvada.Macaronikid.com June 19, 2013

The Macaroni Kid Event Calendar is what brings parents to the Macaroni Kid website, and keeps them returning throughout the month. Parents look to the Macaroni Kid calendar to plan activities for their families. It is always free to list your FREE or LOW-COST events in the Macaroni Kid calendar. Events must take place within our territory, which is in the Evergreen, Bailey, Conifer and closely surrounding areas. 

To list your event, click here.

Event Listing Guidelines

DO List:

  • All free drop-in events (such as library events, craft events, community hikes, museum visits, etc.)
  • Low-Cost (under $10) 
  • One-day events which require pre-registration or tickets (such as a workshop, sporting event, puppet show, etc.)
  • Pre-registration deadlines for recurring classes (such as music or dance lessons, sports sign-up, etc.)
  • School Open Houses 

DO NOT List:

  • Events which require membership in an organization to attend (these exclude, rather than include, our readers)
  • Recurring class times for which pre-payment/registration is required.  
  • Sold out performance times.
  • Events that cost more than $10 to attend. Please reach out to Julie for other opportunities to list your higher cost events.

Submitting Your Event is Easy!

  1. First, please check the calendar to see if the event has already been listed.  
  2. Click the 'Submit Event' button.  This ensures that all of the details our readers need will be available to them.  Bookmark the link!  The sooner you submit your event, the longer it will appear on the calendar, and the more exposure your event will have.
  3. Note:  The "How" field is how readers register for your event. If it is "drop-in" place that info there.
  4. Please email me at julied@macaronikid.com for more information on upgrading your calendar listing.

Not sure if your event meets the criteria?  Submit it anyway!  I will be happy to review all submissions, and those that fit Evergreen/Bailey/Conifer Macaroni Kid's criteria will be placed on the calendar within 2-3 business days.

Submit an event to the Evergreen/Bailey/Conifer Macaroni Kid calendar now.
