Welcome to the NYC Event Tracker

With so much happening in the city, it’s easy to loose track and miss out. This doc gives you a place to record events and find what you want to do.

Adding Events

The quickest way to add an event is from the

Event Tracker⁠

page. Use the “New Event” button or type notes if you are on the go.

Timed and all day events are supported

Weekly events

Check the box if the event or activity happens weekly. This enables the “Next Event” button.

Click “Next Event” to create the next event in the series. This copies the row, adding 7 days to the start and end dates.

The next event is not created automatically by design to avoid unnecessary data

The “Sometime” checkbox is for when you don’t have a specific time you want to do something

Price details are added in the Notes section to allow text entries, such as a price range.
