many events sell tickets loooong in advance...

so I want to consider going to some of such events...

I want to reference some list... and get dates for them...

do you know of any such events?

and what are the future dates?

thank you...

It depends entirely on what sort of events you are wanting to go to.

If it was my favorite band I'd sign up to their newsletter, if it was a conference about a certain aspects of my work I'd sign up with the body who runs that conference for their latest news.

I don't think one website/service would cover every potential event that could occur worldwide.

Google News, the Events section of most Classifieds websites such as kijiji, craigslist, online newspapers and actual print newspapers.

There are tons of events, you just need to know where to look and plan ahead/accordingly. MayDay is one BIG event. And I'm attending it.

Three things to consider:

Ticketmaster: You can set alerts for favortite bands, arenas, etc. And any time something related to the venue, band, etc comes up (like ticket sale alerts), you'll get a message.

Arena websites: For instance, I am a "member" (no cost) of the TD Garden Insiders club. I get alerts about presales before tix go on sale to the general public.

Band Clubs: I am signed up for a few bands' news letter alerts and stuff like that.....
