Happenr.com lets you search events of any size, whether they’re hyper-local (e.g. in the street you live) or at a large venue. You can look up any event in Europe by location, date and/or category. Advanced RSS feeds allow people to subscribe to specific search queries in their favorite reader, enabling them to remain up-to-date about the event categories, organizers or venues that they’re most interested in. In a few weeks, we’ll make it possible for events to be easily exported to online calendars with the iCal standard, printed or e-mailed to a friend.

Happenr.com features easy-to-use web controls which enables anyone to embed the search box or specific search results into their own portal, website or blog, free of charge. There’s also an Application Programming Interface (API) available for developers who would like to use the Happenr database of event information for their own projects or applications. This redistribution of high-quality content is particularly useful for large travel portals and social networks, online media publications, the cultural sector and the travel industry as a whole (hotels, airline companies, tourist agencies, etc.).

Evidently, our data and application lends itself perfectly for mobile devices, particularly those with location-awareness built in. Our free Apple iPhone application, which has yet to be approved for the App Store at this point, has already won us a Bronze Award for best location-based search application at the Mobile Search Awards in London (September 2008).
