SmartShanghai's Events Calendar is one of the main ways our users discover what's happening in Shanghai. On busy weekends, we may list 20–40 events competing for attention.

Premium Event Listings stand out with a much larger preview image, priority placement and more space to present your event.

• Priority placement above regular event listings
• Much larger preview image
• More space for event information and visuals
• Designed to stand out on busy event weekends

Your event gets prominent exposure across the SmartShanghai website, app and WeChat MiniProgram — channels that still account for a large share of our overall traffic.

These channels are particularly important for newly arrived expats and visitors actively looking for things to do in Shanghai.

• Event Boost: Featured in our “Hot Tickets” section for up to one week
• Event Campaign & Spotlight: Featured in the main Events homepage slider
• Exposure across website, app and WeChat MiniProgram

Every week, our editors pick the events we think are most worth knowing about and feature them in our WeChat Events Roundup.

From roughly 40–50 events listed on SmartShanghai each week, typically only 10–15 make the roundup. Promoted events receive guaranteed inclusion and priority placement at the top.

We know quite a bit about what our members are interested in. When users join SmartShanghai, they can share their interests, nationality and how long they've been in Shanghai. We also use their activity on SmartShanghai to better understand the kind of content and events they like.

We use this information to identify a relevant audience for your event and send them a targeted push notification through the SmartShanghai app and website.

• Targeted by interests and member profile
• Improved by what members actually engage with on SmartShanghai
• Delivered directly via app and website push notification
• 200 / 800 / 2,000 targeted members depending on package

Give your event sponsors additional exposure beyond your own event materials. Sponsors can be featured directly on your SmartShanghai event page with their name or logo, a short introduction and a link to their website or campaign.

This gives you additional media value to offer sponsors as part of your own sponsorship packages.

• Dedicated sponsor exposure on your event page
• Sponsor name or logo with a short introduction
• Direct link to the sponsor's website or campaign
• 1 sponsor with Event Campaign / up to 3 with Event Spotlight
