A new Accessibility page (linked in the footer) lets you make text bigger, reduce motion, and turn on higher contrast — applied instantly and saved on your device, across the website and the app. In the app this also gives back text-size control, since the app otherwise renders at a fixed size.

Enabled WebAuthn in the Android app's WebView so you can set up and sign in with a passkey (Face/fingerprint/screen lock) right in the app — previously that only worked in a browser. The push-notifications button also now shows “Enabling…”/“Sending…” while it works, instead of looking like nothing happened.

Event organizers can now mark a paid event “all sales final.” When they do, buyers see a clear no-refunds notice on the checkout before they pay, and the event's refund terms reflect it. Organizers (and Scene support) can still issue a refund for a cancellation or as a goodwill exception.

The Tonight filter and the feed now use your device's local date, so late in the evening you see tonight's events (including ones already underway) instead of jumping to tomorrow. Events stay listed until local midnight, and each day is ordered by start time so what's on now shows first.

In the app, sharing an event to Instagram now opens Stories with the event's card already loaded — no share sheet, no app-picker. The card also shows the full poster now instead of cropping the top.

Skip the email code — add a passkey and sign in with Face ID, Touch ID, or your device's screen lock in one tap. Passkeys are phishing-resistant and private to your devices (no third party sees your account). Add or remove them under Account & settings → Passkeys.

When you add an event poster, a slider lets you pick which part of it shows in the cropped cards (like Hot Events) — slide to keep the key art in frame instead of settling for a center crop. Organizers and admins can set it when posting or editing.

A venue owner now gets a dashboard for their bar or space — every event booked there from any organizer, in one place (manage your own, see the rest), plus followers, counts, and co-managers. Find it from your account or the venue page.

A feed's owner (or an admin) can now add co-managers — extra members who can manage every event the feed imports, now and in future, alongside the owner. Great for a venue whose staff share the calendar.

Your account is now organized into clear groups — your profile, bio and tickets sit up top, with discovery, notifications, and account settings tidied into sections below.

When you post an online-only event, the city field is now optional — add one to help local followers find it, or leave it blank.

Event pages and venue cards now have a “Directions” link that opens the address in your phone’s default map app.

When a moderator adds a ticketing link while quick-editing an event, the event now shows its “Get tickets” button immediately — no second save needed — and a quick-edit never clears an event's existing off-Scene ticket link.

When an imported or edited event names a venue that already exists under a slightly different name (e.g. “Jackhammer” vs “Jackhammer Chicago”), Scene now attaches it to the established venue — with its address and map — instead of creating a near-duplicate.

When you add an event and paste a link to a ticketing site (Eventbrite, DICE, Resident Advisor, and many more), Scene now automatically sets entry to “Tickets sold elsewhere” and fills in your ticket link — one less step. You can always change it back.

Organizers can now pay to feature an event — it’s pinned to the top of the feed and the matching city and type pages with a ★ Featured badge for the length you choose. Find “Promote this event” on your event page.

The Android app now uses edge-to-edge display in line with Android 15, so the status bar and screen edges render cleanly on the latest devices.

New pages gather each kind of event — play parties, munches & socials, classes & workshops, title contests, fundraisers, and conferences — across every city, so it’s easier to find (and for search engines to surface) exactly what you’re looking for.

There’s a new page for organizers and venues explaining why to sell with Scene — with a live calculator that shows what you’d keep versus Eventbrite. Lower fees, card processing included, and it’s built for our community.

Once an event is over it stops showing as “Live” in Your events and is archived — 24 hours after it ends, or, for events that sold tickets through Scene, once your payout is settled and the final receipt is sent. Archived events stay in your list and at their link; they just no longer appear as live or in public browse.

The home feed now has quick-filter chips — tap “Tonight” or “This weekend” to jump to what’s on soon, or “Free” to show only free-to-attend events. They stack with your other filters and stay in the URL, so a filtered view is easy to share.

There’s a new “Organizer home” (from your account) that shows everything you host at a glance — upcoming events, tickets sold, gross, and check-in turnout up top, then each upcoming event with a capacity fill bar and one-tap Manage, Door, and Insights links.

Organizers can now add safety & consent notes — consent policy, sober/substance policy, aftercare, safe-word or monitor contacts, accessibility — and they show in a clear, highlighted “Safety & entry” panel alongside the age, dress code, and vetting details, so attendees know what to expect before they come.

On a phone, the price and a “Get tickets” button now stay pinned to the bottom of an event page while you read — with a subtle “Only N left” when a tier is running low — so buying is always one tap away instead of a scroll back up.

Duplicate detection now catches a venue whose street address was typed into the city field (with no separate address) — like the two “CellBlock” entries at 3702 N Halsted — so they’re grouped for one-click merge instead of both lingering in the admin list.

When you post an event you can now check “I’m adding this on behalf of another organizer.” The event is credited to the host you named — its page links to them, not you — and it stays off your organizer profile, so your page only shows events you actually run. You can flip any of your existing events with one tap from your account under “Your events.”

On your event page you’ll now see a “Preview as attendee” link — it shows the page exactly as everyone else sees it (no organizer or admin controls, address gated as usual), so you can check it looks clean and professional before you share it.

The share button now reliably gives you the actual events card — through your phone’s share sheet, or by saving/opening the image where that isn’t supported — instead of only copying a link, and the copied link is now your profile so people can find you.

The venue field on the post form now shows a tidy, in-page list of matches as you type instead of a full-screen overlay that covered the page on phones — and if your venue isn’t listed, it clearly offers to add it as a new one so you’re never stuck.

“Your events” on your account now lists events chronologically — the next one first — and collapses a recurring series (the same event name in the same city) into one row you can expand, so a long-running series no longer floods the list.

The venue directory now catches duplicates on numbered streets (like two “Red Eye NY” entries at 355 W 41st St) and identical short names that slipped through before — so they’re auto-merged or flagged for review instead of appearing twice.

Your account page can now generate a polished “My upcoming events” card — your profile picture, your name, and your next few events — ready to post to an Instagram story or anywhere else. Only your public events are shown; private and invite-only ones are never included.

For an event that requires ticket activation, “My tickets” now shows an “Activate all” shortcut so you can turn on every QR for that event in one tap, instead of opening each ticket. Tickets still waiting to be activated are labelled clearly.

Organizers can now require ticket activation: a holder’s QR code stays hidden until they tap “Activate” in the window before doors, and once activated a ticket can no longer be sent to someone else. It curbs touting and last-minute resale, and the door scan enforces it — even a saved wallet pass is refused until activated. Off by default; turn it on per event under Ticket types.

Events now load in date order by default — the clear, chronological “Upcoming” view — instead of the personalized “For you” ranking, which read as out of order on first glance. “For you” is still there as a tab whenever you want it.

If your event has no tickets — a free or RSVP-only party — the manage page no longer clutters up with payout statements, promo codes, orders, and fee settings. You just get a clean “add a ticket type” option, and the full ticketing tools appear the moment you add one.

Entries that aren't actually venues — a pasted link, a bare street address, or placeholder text like “RSVP for location” — no longer create or appear as venues in the directory.

Venues are now grouped by city with a jump-to-city bar, each kind has a clear colour-coded badge, and venue pages show the full address (state + ZIP) with a one-tap “Get directions” link.

The venue directory now catches more duplicates — including typos and near-matching names — and automatically merges exact duplicates (same name at the same address) so each place appears once, with its details combined.

An unlisted event's venue — which may be a private home address — is never published to the public Venues directory, listed on a venue page, or counted there. Only public events surface a venue publicly.

If your connection hiccups while submitting an event, you now get a clear “check your connection and try again” message instead of a stuck spinner — just tap post again.

An unlisted event is reachable only by its direct link and never appears in browse, search, or feeds — so it now skips the moderation queue and goes live the moment you post it. Public events are still reviewed as before. Perfect for a private party you want up and shareable right away.

Attendee chat now lets you react to a message with an emoji and report one that's out of line. A badge on “My schedule” shows when you have unread chat messages across your events, so you never miss the plans.

Hosts can turn on an attendee chat from the manage page — a group thread everyone who RSVP'd (plus the hosts) can read and post in, right on the event page. New messages ping members by push. Great for coordinating a private party.

Public profiles now lead with a big profile photo and let you add a short bio and show your city, so your page reads as a proper introduction. Add both in your account settings.

When you set up a new event, the manage page can now pull up everyone who came to (or RSVP'd) your past events, so you can invite the same crowd back with a few taps instead of retyping the list.

Hosts can now invite people to an event by email or scene name from the manage page. Guests get a link to RSVP, and for a private or approval-only event, accepting the invite lets them in automatically — handy for bringing a guest list over from another app.

You can now add an optional profile photo in your account settings. It shows on your public profile and to people at events you're both going to — never in public search — and you'll show your initials until you add one.

Local-language spellings now settle on one canonical name — Antwerpen → Antwerp, Köln → Cologne, Milano → Milan, München → Munich, Ciudad de México → Mexico City, and more — so each city shows up once instead of splitting into duplicates.

Location-based features (Hot events near you, and Near me in the feed) now work inside the iOS and Android apps, not just the website — the app asks for the system location permission the first time you tap the button.

The “Hot events in your area” strip on the home page now centers on where you are: it uses your device location when you share it (tap “Use my location” — we never prompt without asking), and otherwise the home city you can set under Account → Your area. No location either way falls back to the cities you follow.

When an event is imported from a feed with a poster but few details, Scene now reads the poster to fill in the venue, hours, and other specifics before it goes to moderation — so listings arrive more complete instead of bare.

When the same event is listed in two imported feeds, merging the duplicates now sticks — the daily feed refresh no longer re-creates the copy you already merged away.

We've trimmed Scene's ticket service fee from 6% to 5.9% (plus the flat $0.99 per ticket, unchanged). Organizers still keep 100% of face value and card processing is still included — buyers just pay a little less at checkout.

Signed-in members now land on a “For you” feed that ranks events by the cities you follow, the kinds of events you go to, and the interests you pick. New here? A quick prompt helps you choose interests and follow your city so it feels personal from day one.

Introducing Scene Pro, an organizer toolset. The first Pro tool: export your event's attendee roster (name, ticket type, check-in status) to CSV from the event's Insights page. More Pro tools are on the way.

Event cards now show a little social proof — how many people are going or have saved an event — so the busy ones stand out. Hosts who'd rather not advertise turnout can hide the count per event in the event's settings; people who chose to be listed still show.

Your account now lists the hosts and venues you follow — each links straight to their page, and you can unfollow in a tap. Not following anyone yet? There's a nudge to go find some.

Every host now has a shareable page listing their upcoming and past events, browsable at /organizers. Follow a host and we'll alert you the moment they post something new. Verified hosts get a page automatically; any host can turn theirs on or off in account settings.

The Android app can ask for your location (approximate — you're always in control) so “Near me” sorts events by how close they are and centers the map on you, just like on the web.

When you merge duplicate venues, we now remember it — a feed that keeps importing the old name resolves to the surviving venue instead of re-creating the duplicate, so the same merge suggestions stop coming back.

Hosting online? You can now pick extra time zones to display alongside the event's own — so attendees joining from different regions see the start time in their zone at a glance (with a next-day marker when it rolls over).

When a moderator makes you a verified host, your future events now go live immediately — no waiting for approval — and any of your listings already in the queue are approved right away.

Event, venue, and city listings now render as crisp, delineated cards with a brand accent rail — easier to scan and more polished across the site.

When Scene imports an event from a calendar (ICS), RSS/Media RSS, or JSON feed, it now pulls in the event's poster image too — re-hosted on Scene so it keeps working even if the source changes it. Posters from feeds that aren't verified hosts are held for review before they go live.

Seller onboarding now takes a W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E certification for non-US organizers instead of requiring a US Social Security or employer number, so international producers can be paid out too. For US organizers, year-end tax reporting is now more accurate: 1099-K figures follow the IRS rules by transaction date, use the correct federal and state thresholds, and any legally required backup withholding is itemized on your payout receipt.

Behind the scenes, admission tax is now tracked per filing period with a locked snapshot once a return is prepared. If a ticket is refunded after that, the tax credit rides the next return instead of changing a number that was already filed — and Scene's team gets due-date reminders so returns are never late.

Cash sales at the box office now include the same local admission tax as online sales — added to the cash total (or included in the price if you chose that) and recorded on the order — so a busy door never leaves tax uncollected. Where a city also taxes service fees (like Chicago), that part is calculated and shown as its own line.

When you set up tickets you now see exactly which local admission taxes apply to your event and at what rate, can set your venue's maximum capacity if it's missing (small-venue rules depend on it), claim an exemption — like the live-performance exemption for a DJ night in a small venue — with your attestation and performer contract, and choose whether tax is added on top of your price or included in it. Claims are reviewed before they take effect, so buyers are never under-charged.

Events imported from a calendar feed now show just the venue name and city, with the street address pulled out into a real, linkable venue record (with a map) instead of one long run-on line.

When you start paying for a ticket, your seats are now reserved for 10 minutes with a countdown, so you won't lose them while you enter your card — and a scarce ticket can never be oversold to two people at once.

You can now report a member from their profile, not just an event — with a reason category and optional detail in a proper dialog (no more tiny pop-up). Reports of people and listings land in one moderation queue, where our team can suspend or ban an account when needed.

Organizers can now turn on attendee approval for an event: members request to attend (with an optional note), and only once you approve them can they RSVP, see the address, or buy a ticket. Requests are reviewed right on your event's manage page, and everyone gets an email when they're approved or declined.

When you post or edit an event you can now set it to Unlisted: the page still works for anyone with the link, but it's kept out of browse, search, city pages, calendar feeds, the sitemap, and follower notifications. Perfect for invite-only or private gatherings.

When you scan a ticket, the door console now shows who it's for and, on 18+/21+ events, reminds staff to check a valid photo ID — with a one-tap way to record that the ID was verified, so you have a compliance trail. Scene still never stores anyone's legal name or date of birth.

Can't make it? Transfer your ticket to a friend from the ticket page — you enter their email, they accept with one tap, and your old QR is instantly replaced with their own. The ticket only moves once they accept, so a mistyped email never costs you your seat.

A promo code's usage limit is now enforced atomically, so a limited code can never be redeemed past its cap even under simultaneous checkouts, and a declined card never burns a use. Organizers can also apply a promo code to in-person box-office sales.

Calendar imports now support JSON Feeds, and when a feed doesn't expose a date field we read the event's date, time, and city out of the listing title — so more venue schedules import cleanly. Titles parsed this way are held for review before going live.

City names now converge on one canonical spelling — the state is filled in (Milwaukee → Milwaukee, WI), accents and abbreviations are handled (Sao Paulo → São Paulo, Ft. Lauderdale → Fort Lauderdale), and duplicates or misspellings are flagged for a one-click merge — so browsing by city is cleaner and more complete.

US events still default to 21+, but organizers and admins can now set an event to 18+ when it genuinely admits under-21s — the choice sticks instead of reverting on save.

The Scene beacon in Pride-rainbow colours is now on a lightweight tank — on white, inclusive sizing XS–2XL. Find it in the shop.

Ticket sales, boosts, and refunds are now linked to their event, so the business finance dashboard, CSV export, and reconciliation exclude anything on a test event — keeping income, expenses, and net focused on real money.

Test events no longer appear in the payouts report, CSV, or 1099-K figures, and a fully-refunded order no longer inflates 'Gross collected' — so the numbers reflect only real money actually collected and owed.

When duplicate venues are merged, links to the removed one — bookmarks, shared URLs, search results — now redirect to the surviving venue instead of hitting a 'not found' page.

The admin duplicate-venue finder now catches the same place listed twice even when the city was typed differently, by also matching on the street address. And merging duplicates now moves everything to the surviving venue — its events, rooms, followers, and calendar-feed links — so nothing is lost. Messy city text also no longer creates a brand-new venue when one already exists.

Your payout receipt is now a proper branded document you can hand to an accountant: the Scene logo, the event name and date, when it was created, and an itemized breakdown — gross sales, the service fee (with the 6% + $0.99 policy and the effective rate), refunds, and your net. It also shows where the money went, with your bank or PayPal masked to the last few digits. Open it from Account → Payouts and Save as PDF.

When you apply to sell tickets, your confirmation email now links straight to your signed Organizer Agreement, so you have your copy on hand right away — no waiting for approval. Once we countersign it, the approval email links to the fully-executed contract too.

Before an event's paid tickets go on sale, you'll now confirm that event's terms in one click — Scene's fee and who pays it, your own booking fee if you set one, the estimated payout date, and that Scene collects as merchant of record. It's a quick, clear checkpoint under your signed Organizer Agreement, so there are no surprises on payout day. Free events aren't affected.

Setting up to sell tickets now means signing a proper Organizer Agreement, not just ticking a box. You type your legal name to sign, we record it with the date, version, and technical details, and Scene countersigns when we approve you — producing a clean, executed contract that spells out the fee, payouts, merchant-of-record terms, and what's included. Download the signed copy any time from Account → Sell.

Hosting a party in a specific room of a bar — a back room, loft, or side stage? When you post or edit an event you can now name that room (e.g. "The Back Room") right under the venue. The event still lives at the larger venue, so the map, address, and venue page stay the bar's — the room just shows as a small label beneath it. Rooms are reusable: once one's been used at a venue, it's offered the next time, and if the room has its own capacity we'll prefill it for you.

The dark map on venue and events pages was showing an "API key required" placeholder after our tile provider changed its terms. Maps now use a keyless provider, so they render normally again.

When you post or edit an event and choose a venue Scene already knows, its street address, state/region, and capacity fill in automatically. If you correct any of those details, the change is sent to our team as a venue edit suggestion instead of being dropped — so the venue's info stays accurate for everyone. Admins can also mark an event as a test (hidden from feeds and emails) when editing, not just when creating it.

Your seller settings now show the date and version of the Organizer Agreement you accepted during onboarding, so there's a clear record on both sides. Nothing to do — it's just visible now.

Add a promoter's email when you set up their link, and they can sign in at /promoter to watch their own numbers live — link clicks, tickets sold, sales they drove, and any commission you're tracking. Great for guest-list hosts and street teams who want to see their impact.

A new per-event option lets organizers absorb any local admission/amusement tax so buyers pay a clean price with no tax added at checkout. The tax is still collected and remitted, so it comes out of your payout — useful when an event is tax-exempt or you'd rather cover it yourself. Find it in Manage → Tickets, beside the service-fee option.

The admin Tax · 1099-K report now itemizes each organizer's annual reportable total by event — expand any payee to see which event each dollar came from, and download a per-event breakdown CSV alongside the filing file. Payouts were already tagged to their event on the payouts pages and statements.

Organizers can now give someone box-office-only access to a single event — they can sell tickets at the door and check people in from their own phone, but can't see sales, payouts, orders, or change anything. Add them from Manage → Door staff and share their door link.

Suggesting a venue is now one simple form — logo, address, state, postal code, capacity, socials, and an optional calendar feed to auto-import your events. It's on both the Venues page and the hosts page, and every submission goes to our team for a quick review before it goes live.

A new Account → Payouts page shows what Scene owes you across every event, each with a clear status (accruing, awaiting funds, ready, or paid) and an expected pay date — within 5 business days after your event, once card funds settle. Download a CSV statement any time, and you'll get an email if a refund changes a payout.

Organizers can now absorb Scene's service fee instead of passing it to buyers — flip it on under Manage → Service fee and buyers see a clean, all-in price while the fee comes out of your payout. Off by default, so you keep 100% of face value unless you opt in.

Ticket fees now work like every major ticketing platform: buyers pay a small service fee at checkout (6% + $0.99 per ticket, card processing included) and organizers are paid out the full face value of every ticket sold. Free tickets stay free.

Buy tickets in one tap with the wallet already on your phone — no card number to type. iPhone buyers see Apple Pay, Android buyers see Google Pay, and everyone else pays by card as before.

A new “Compare events” view lines up every event you host or co-host side by side — saves, RSVPs, tickets sold, gross, and check-in turnout — so you can see what's working. Open it from your account or any event's Insights.

Organizers can add a booking/service fee (a percentage and/or a flat amount per ticket) on top of Scene's fee. The buyer sees it clearly at checkout and it's paid out to you.

Give each promoter their own shareable link and see exactly how many sales they drove, with optional commission tracking — so you know who's bringing the crowd. Find it under your event's Promoters tab.

A new box office lets you sell a ticket in person — cash or card — and issue a real QR on the spot, separate from checking people in. Great for walk-ups on the night.

Mark a ticket as a multi-day pass and it works across every day of an event weekend — scanning in once per day at the door. One purchase, all-weekend access.

Add automatic quantity discounts to a ticket, like “buy 5+ and save 10%.” The discount applies itself at checkout with no code to type, and stacks with a promo code if you run one.

Sell a package at its own price that includes several tickets at once — say “Weekend + workshop” or a group table — and each one arrives as its own scannable QR. Set it up as a ticket type and pick what it includes.

Organizers can share a private preview link to a test or not-yet-published event, so specific people can open it — and even buy a ticket — without it appearing in the public feed. The link is in your event's Manage → Share panel while the event is hidden.

The event form now has a clear “Tickets & entry” choice up front: sell or offer tickets on Scene, link out to tickets you sell elsewhere, or take free RSVPs. Selling and comps are easy to find, and there's a one-tap path to get set up to sell.

Ticket wallet passes now work on both Apple Wallet (iPhone) and Google Wallet (Android), and everywhere you see the option — your ticket, the confirmation email, the post-purchase screen — you're shown only the one that fits your device. No more dead buttons.

Set a ticket to climb through price levels on its own — Early bird → … → Final release — advancing automatically on a date, after a number of tickets sell, or whichever comes first. Buyers always pay the level that's live when they check out, with a heads-up before the price goes up.

Ratings now weight verified check-ins and recent nights more heavily, so they reflect people who were actually there and how a place runs today. Venue and host profiles show what people praise most, and the Top rated page now features standout hosts too.

Star ratings from your reviews now roll up to the venue and the host who ran the night. Standout spaces and hosts earn a Community favorite badge, and a new Top rated page helps you find the best venues near you.

If we take down an event after a report, the organizer now gets an email explaining what happened and how to appeal — and if they'd paid to promote it, we can refund that boost in full. Transparency both ways.

Tell Scene what you're into — rope, impact, leather, bootblacking, and more — from your account, and the “For you” feed will float matching events higher. Organizers can tag their events too so the right people find them.

Tap Following on the feed to see only events from the hosts, venues, and cities you follow — your people and places in one place. Combine it with any city or type filter to narrow further.

The feed now shows an event's star rating at a glance, and — when you're signed in — a note when people you follow are going. Easier to spot the events worth your night.

After an event wraps, the people who were there — the host, co-hosts, and anyone who marked themselves going — can post recap photos right on the event page. Relive the night, and give newcomers a real feel for the vibe before they go.

Went to an event? Once it's over you can leave a quick vibe check — a star rating, tags like “consent-forward” or “welcoming”, and an optional note. Reviews from people who were checked in show a verified badge, so the community can find events that feel right for them.

You can now follow an organizer or a venue right from an event or venue page. When they post a new event, we'll email you (and send a push if you're signed in) so you never miss a party from your favourites.

On events where ticket sales haven't opened yet, you can now tap “Notify me” to be first to know. We'll send you a single email (and a push, if you're signed in) the moment tickets go live — no need to keep checking back.

The newest merch now gets its own “New & exciting” spot at the top of the shop, so it's easy to see what just landed.

New in the shop: a bootblack-edition drop with the Scene beacon on tees in five colourways, plus our first-ever hoodies in eight. Printed on demand and shipped worldwide — every order helps keep Scene free.

Titles and locations pulled in from a calendar feed now display emoji and punctuation properly, instead of raw character codes.

Event and ticket links now use the event's name instead of a long string of characters, so a link you share reads like the event itself. Older links still work.

Managing an event is now a proper dashboard — quick-jump sections for tickets, guests, orders, codes, and sharing, an at-a-glance sales and payout summary, and one Share panel with a copy link, an embed snippet, and a scannable QR code for your ticket page.

The shareable ticket page got a full redesign: a poster hero, clear event details with a map link, and a tidy panel with your packages, add-ons, and codes all in one place.

Hide a ticket tier behind a code so only people who have it can see and buy it — perfect for presales, member early-access, or VIP tiers. Buyers enter the code on the ticket page to unlock the hidden tickets.

Offer free tickets or hand out complimentary guest passes with no card required — each one still delivers a real QR entry pass by email. Set a ticket to free, or use a 100%-off code for your comp list, and checkout skips payment entirely.

Cards and lists now make the venue clearer and label who's hosting, so you can tell where an event is and who's running it at a glance.

The age-confirmation screen now works inside apps' built-in browsers — like Instagram, Facebook, or TikTok — where it could previously get stuck, so you can enter the site without opening a separate browser.

When you add an event, upload the poster and Scene reads it to pre-fill the details it can find — title, date, time, venue, and more — so you can post in seconds and just tidy up the rest.

Every event page now has a prominent share row with one-tap buttons for the places you actually post, so getting the word out takes a single tap.

Shop orders can now be returned or exchanged, with a clear policy and a simple request flow.

Spot a wrong time, address, or detail? You can now suggest an edit to any event or venue, and our moderators review it — so listings stay accurate even when the organizer isn't around.

We trimmed and split the code the site loads up front, so pages open faster — especially the first one you land on.

You can now subscribe to this What's new feed and get a short email when we ship something — no account needed.

The venues page now has a live search box and sort options — most active, A–Z, or by city — plus country and city filters, instead of a long wall of city chips.

A festival or multi-day weekend can now group all its parties, workshops, and sessions under one event. Its page lays out a day-by-day schedule, each session links to its own page with its own tickets, and you can add the whole weekend to your calendar in one tap. In city feeds a weekend shows as a single card instead of flooding the list.

Some iPhone users on Safari hit a repeating “a problem repeatedly occurred” error opening Scene. That's fixed — the home page loads reliably again.

Event age limits now default to the host country's legal drinking age — 21+ in the US and other 21+ countries, 18+ elsewhere — so every listing shows the right minimum.

Suggesting a venue now lets you add its public calendar feed (Google Calendar, iCal, or RSS). Once a moderator vets the source, its events auto-import, so a space's whole schedule can flow into Scene.

When adding an event or venue you can now type your social handle (e.g. @yourclub) instead of pasting the full profile URL — Scene builds the link for you.

Imported and pasted descriptions now render their formatting — links, lists, line breaks — instead of showing raw code, so listings read cleanly.

The shop now carries the Scene beacon on a lightweight tank in five colourways alongside the tees, with the front page split into T-shirts and Tank tops so each collection is easy to browse. Picking a colour swaps the photo so you see exactly what you're ordering.

Following a city now sends a single, well-formatted weekly roundup of what's on near you — grouped by city — instead of an email every time an event is approved. Prefer daily, every-event, or none? Change it any time under “Email me about new events” in your account.

Reminders, notifications, digests, and share cards now include each event's start time, and online events show the time zone (e.g. “8:00 PM CST”) so a worldwide audience always knows exactly when to join.

A new Online filter and a dedicated Online events page gather every virtual and hybrid event in one place, with an “Online” badge on cards and shared links so you can spot them at a glance.

Post an event that happens online — or both online and in person. Choose Online or Hybrid when you post, add your join link, platform, and time zone. The join link stays private and is shared only after someone RSVPs, so it can't be scraped — then it appears on the event page, in your reminders, and in your calendar, one tap from joining.

Two beginner-friendly, non-explicit guides join the hub — “What is a play party?” and “How to find kink & BDSM classes near you” — with plain-language answers and links from every city.

Weekend-long and multi-day events no longer drop off the home feed and city listings the moment they begin — they stay visible right through their final day.

Your private calendar subscription can now include the upcoming events in the cities you follow — not just the ones you've saved. Choose saved events, followed cities, or both from your account.

Save a search — any mix of city, event type, and keyword — and get an email (and optional push) the moment a new matching event is approved. Manage your saved searches from your account.

Signed in? Switch the feed to “For you” and events are ranked around the cities you follow and the kinds of events you save and RSVP to, with a nudge for what's happening soon. Plain “Upcoming” is always one tap away.

Follow members with a public profile and see when someone you follow is going to an event you're looking at. Manage who you follow from your account; follows are private to you.

Block a member to hide them from your guest lists and connections — and find every safety tool, plus your blocked list, in the new safety center.

Members who host events now get an Organizer profile — upcoming and previously-hosted events, how long they've been on Scene, their vouches and verified badge — so attendees can check a track record. Tap an organizer's name on any event.

Every event you host now has an Insights page — saves, RSVPs, and for ticketed events tickets sold, gross, and check-in turnout, with simple conversion rates. Works for free events too, and never shows page views (browsing stays private).

Give a trusted member management access to an event — they can edit it, run tickets, see insights, and check people in — from the Manage dashboard. Only the creator can delete the event or change the co-host list.

Running a recurring night or an annual party? Hit Duplicate on any of your events to open a fresh submission pre-filled from the original — just pick a new date. Co-hosts can duplicate too.

Enter your address in the cart and the shop now shows your real shipping rate (straight from the print partner) instead of a flat estimate, with any sales tax calculated transparently at payment.

Every account now has a private invite link. Share it, and when someone joins Scene through it you're credited — invite three who join and you earn the Community builder badge on your profile.

Turn on push to get event reminders and saved-search alerts on your device — enable it from the prompt at the top or under Event reminders in your account.

Every Pride and kink beacon tee is now live — Progress, Leather, Rubber, Pup, Bear, Trans, and more — plus a new Cat design, all in inclusive sizing XS–3XL.

Add any event straight to Apple, Google, or Outlook from its page — pick your calendar and go.

Your saved events now split into Upcoming (soonest first) and Past (most recent first), so what's next is always on top.

Calendar (ICS) feeds no longer land a day — or an hour — off. Times now resolve to the event's own city and time zone, with daylight saving handled correctly.

Point Scene at a calendar (ICS) or RSS URL from your account and its events import automatically — owned by you and editable under Your events.

Update the email on your account yourself — we send a confirmation link to the new address so a typo can never lock you out.

Scene names are now one-per-member, so there's no confusion between people sharing a handle.

Going to something? Post a branded story card with the event poster, the Scene beacon, and a link back to the event.

Filter a city's events to a date range, or sort by soonest, most popular, or by date — pick from the search dropdown.

In map view, events in a pin's popup now open straight to their full event page.

The shop is live with the Scene beacon tee and Pride-flag colorways, printed and shipped on demand.

Organizers can sell tickets with QR entry passes, scan them at the door, issue refunds, run waitlists and comp lists, and add passes to Apple or Google Wallet.

Save an event and get an email (and optional push) the day before and the morning of — with the address once you've RSVP'd.

Browse events on a map by city, with privacy-preserving city-level pins.

Opt into a pseudonymous public profile with your social links, and carry portable, member-vouched community standing across every event.

Post a series once and Scene generates each occurrence, grouped together in listings.
