Core Concepts

Events & Activities

Events, festivals, and bookable attractions during the stay.

Three endpoints that answer “what’s happening while my guests are here?” — spanning live events (concerts, theatre, sports), curated annual festivals, and pre-bookable tours and experiences.

Endpoints

Events

Ticketed events (concerts, sports, theatre) inside the stay window. Coverage: strong in US/CA/UK/IE/AU/NZ and core EU; sparse elsewhere.

Festivals

Iconic annual cultural celebrations from a curated catalogue — fully in-process, deterministic, offline-safe. Section self-gates when nothing in the window/radius.

Attractions

Bookable tours, activities, and experiences with affiliate deep-links to the vendor’s checkout. Self-gates outside supported cities (~100 km).

Events tell you Adele is playing 2 nights while your guests are here. Festivals tell you they’ll be arriving mid-Oktoberfest.

Example: full Events & Activities section

const params = new URLSearchParams({ lat, lng, start, end }).toString();
const [events, festivals, attractions] = await Promise.all([
  fetch(`/v1/pulse/events?${params}`,     { headers }).then(r => r.json()),
  fetch(`/v1/pulse/festivals?${params}`,  { headers }).then(r => r.json()),
  fetch(`/v1/pulse/attractions?lat=${lat}&lng=${lng}`, { headers }).then(r => r.json()),
]);
const totalHits = events.events.length + festivals.festivals.length;
