Following a community

Bijgewerkt 27 okt 2026

Following a community keeps you up to date with everything it puts on.


How to follow

Open the community page and select Follow. If you are not signed in, a sign-in prompt opens right there and the follow completes as soon as you are in.

You can also follow from an event page: when the event belongs to a community, the community is shown under Presented by, with a Follow button beside it. In the mobile apps, Follow is on the community page as well.


What you get

  • A notification when a new event is added to the community — sent once the organizer has finished setting it up, and only for events that are still ahead
  • The community's upcoming events in Following in your account, together with everything else you follow
  • The community on your Communities page
  • Newsletters the organizer sends to followers

Following a community does not register you for any event — you still register for each one individually.

New-event notifications arrive as push notifications. In your notification settings you can switch to a daily digest — one message a day with every new event from what you follow — and turn newsletters from communities you follow off. Every newsletter also carries its own unsubscribe link. See Notifications overview.


Your own calendar app

Next to Follow, the feed menu subscribes your calendar app to the community: Google Calendar, Apple Calendar / Outlook, or any reader that takes an RSS feed. A subscription keeps itself up to date as events are added or changed — unlike a downloaded .ics file, which is a one-time snapshot.


Memberships

Some communities offer memberships — free or paid tiers with members-only events and tickets. Joining one makes you a follower too. Cancelling a membership keeps you following the community; unfollowing does not cancel a membership.


Unfollowing

Open the community page and select Following — it turns back to Follow, and the notifications from that community stop.


Finding communities to follow

Browse the communities directory, or the featured communities on Discover. An event that belongs to a community names it on its page — when you register for one event of a series, that is the quickest way to follow the rest of it.
