Submit an Event

Guidelines for Event Submissions

• All events must take place in the Joplin region.
• Events must appeal to visitors and be practical for visitors to attend (i.e., events focused on local attendees, such as political events or club happenings, may not be appropriate).
• Events that will not be accepted include camps, workshops, classes, meetings, information sessions, rallies, demonstrations, most fundraisers, and other resident-focused events.
• Individual store sales and promotion-based events will not be posted. The only exception is that we may post specials and promotions for holidays and special events (i.e., a restaurant's Valentine's Day specials) and shopping center events.
• Event entries must include title, date, location, time, cost (if any), and a description—including contact info for more information.
• "Location" indicates the establishment/area where the event takes place, not the address.
  
• Please spell out addresses (i.e., "Street," "Avenue," "Road").
• Do not use "us" or "we" in the event description (e.g., "join us as we...."). This will lead participants to believe that Visit Joplin is hosting the event.
• Please use the following format when entering phone numbers: 123-456-7890
• Visit Joplin reserves the right to edit or reject any event for any reason.
