Zoop Calendar Features Overview

Blindingly fast event listings

Snap a pic of a flyer on your phone and upload it. ZoopCalendar reads the flyer and instantly creates the listing. Already filled out a form somewhere else? No problem. Take a screenshot and Zoop will transcribe it for you.

Works for event submissions too!

Don't have a flyer yet? Our lightning-fast event form lets you enter the name of the venue and fills in all the address details. No more three-page event forms!

Free promotion for all your events

All events are pushed out on the massive PlanetZoop network, like ZoopEvents on Instagram and Zoop Facebook. As well as the PlanetZoop Social Media platform

Easy Repeazy

Set events to repeat with a few clicks. Every second Thursday? No problem. Taco Tuesday? No problem!
