Get your virtual event noticed

Vaughan’s website is a great place to promote online events
While many groups are
foregoing in-person events in response to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic and
restrictions around gathering sizes, other events are continuing virtually. The
City invites local groups and community organizations to submit their requests
to have their upcoming virtual events posted on Vaughan’s online events
calendar.
The calendar allows residents to browse and stay up to date on upcoming virtual or modified in-person events hosted by the City, eligible groups and organizations throughout Vaughan. It can be viewed at vaughan.ca/EventCalendar.
Interested applicants should consider eligibility requirements before making a submission to the City's event calendar. Approved criteria includes:
- An event, public meeting, workshop, etc. hosted by the City of Vaughan or supported by Council
- A Vaughan community event taking place within the City of Vaughan that is not-for-profit, charitable or officially affiliated with a charity (not held for marketing or advertising purposes)
- An event hosted by York Region that impacts the City of Vaughan
- An event by Community Service Organizations identified and approved by the City’s Recreation Services department
Please note the event calendar is not a listing and requires a link to a website or an online notice to be published. Separate requests must be made for recurring events.
Upcoming events
City-led events resuming virtually include the 2020 Order of Vaughan, the annual Remembrance Day ceremony and the Vaughan Accessibility Champion Awards. The annual Vaughan Culture Days events are also scheduled to begin on Friday, Sept. 25 with many virtual cultural programming opportunities.
