Events

More than ever, people are looking for fresh ways to socialize. They are craving experiences that will bond them in deeper friendships with others. Not only are events a great way to bring people together, they will promote you and your city to other liberators.

Post a city event

You can create any type of personal event or universal event. If you're social distancing, consider posting inclusive, activity-oriented events in which others can participate or take action from wherever they are.

Your events can be group actions or acted on individually. They can celebrate anyone or anything, present or past, that matters most to you. Events can inspire collective community action. Events are always opportunities to refocus guests on the positive values we share in common.

So get creative. If your event is throughful, it will distinguish you. If it's popular, it may spur unity among diverse groups and help heal the divide. It will also add more fun, enrichment, and positivity into the world.

To post a public event:

On your Home page, click Start something new
Select Publicize a new city event
If you want to notify your trade alliances of the event, click "Select your audience"
Check the Trade Alliances checkbox
Give your event a descriptive title
Add tags for publicity
Fill in the event description, date and time, and address
Add images if desired
Click Post

To make your event private:

Event by invitation only

You can create an event and limit it to just a select group of special people. To create an event by invitation only, you'll send a postcard invitation instead of posting the event. Postcards will be sent via email to just your invited guests, and the event will not post to your Younited Front page.

To send an invitation by postcard:

From your city page Civic Center, click Send a postcard
Select Greeting cards
Click any postcard to preview it, or Click here to select to go directly to the greeting card form
In the Recipients box, add each recipient's email address or Youtropolis city name, one per line
Change the message subject by adding your own event title in its place
Fill in the event details in the Message Content area
Complete the form
Click Submit
