Busy Tonight - Find Any Event
Busy Tonight is a search engine for events. Upon first glance, the interface is strikingly similar to Google, and in a good way - you'll find the familiar single search window, vertically ordered results, and even keyword relevant ads on the right. Searches can be executed from specific cities and draw information from an index of local event-related sites.
What events? Where?
In their November 2006 press release, Busy Tonight claims to have indexed over 500,000 listings, making them the 'largest source of event listings in the world.' Here are their statistics for several cities among the many (500+) included in their database:
- New York City - 34,000 events
- Los Angeles - 22,000
- San Francisco - 19,000
- Philadelphia - 18,000
- Chicago - 15,000
Competitors
