Where the figures come from

Gigs, club nights, comedy, theatre and the like come from Skiddle, which lists events and sells tickets. We show what it lists for the next 30 days, so smaller events sold elsewhere may be missing. Pop-up events come from the temporary event notices on the council licensing registers, published under the Open Government Licence. Listings are refreshed every day.
