WHAT TYPES OF EVENTS ARE WE LOOKING FOR?

The Visit Annapolis & Anne Arundel County events calendar is aimed at visitors seeking leisure activities. It also informs potential visitors of all the exciting things there are to do in Anne Arundel County.

A good consideration is: "Would I do this while on vacation?"

EVENT REQUIREMENTS:

  • All events must take place within Anne Arundel County.  Exceptions may be made if it is a high-profile event that is a draw for visitors.

  • All events must be open to the public; either with or without a charge. ( no “membership only” events)

  • All event submissions must fall into one of the following categories: arts & culture; black history; concerts & live music; dining; family-friendly; history; LGBTQIA; Naval Academy; nightlife; on the water; outdoors; shopping; virtual.    

  • Examples of events not likely to be approved: fundraisers & charity auctions; networking events; consumer expos; trainings

TIPS & GUIDELINES:

  • Include a full description of the event and what visitors can expect.

  • Include a portrait-orientated high-resolution image (600 x 400 pixels) of the actual event when possible. Exceptions can be made for first-time events. Event submissions without an image will not be approved.

    • Photos cannot include ANY embedded or superimposed text.  Events submitted without an accompanying photo that meets these requirements will NOT be published.”

    • Event flyers—especially those with a lot of text—and logos are not ideal.
