Neighborly events made simple
Tools that help your neighborhood get together more often: events, clubs, and the work around them, with more of the money staying in your community.
Headcounts you can trust
"Interested" isn't a headcount. Real registrations, confirm-or-decline RSVP check-ins, automatic reminders, and smart waitlists tell you who's actually coming.
Share the work, keep your volunteers
Burnout happens when the same three people do everything. Shifts, supervisors, and auto-assignment spread the load, and volunteers pick the roles that fit them.
Low-fee payments
Transparent, low fees. Event money flows to your community's own account, never through a volunteer's personal Venmo.
Neighborhood clubs
Book clubs, run crews, garden circles. Petition to start one, gather signatures, and run it with the same tools as your neighborhood's events.
Chapter one
Run the event
From "let's do a fall festival" to the last volunteer thanked, with planning, people, and money in one place.
An assistant that does the busywork
The easiest software is the kind you can just talk to. Organizers ask in plain English. The assistant drafts the change, and nothing happens until you approve it.
Just ask
"Set up our fall festival for October 18th" or "add 10 more general admission tickets" and it drafts the event or the change with the details filled in.
You approve everything
Every change is proposed as a card you review, tweak, and confirm. Nothing is published or sent without your say-so.
Answers from your data
"Who's on the waitlist?" "How did ticket sales go?" It reads your real registrations and gives you the numbers, with links to the right page.
Knows where you are
Open it on an event and it already knows the capacity, tickets, reminders, and links. No explaining, no hunting through menus.
Volunteers, without the burnout
The #1 reason neighborhood events fizzle is a few exhausted volunteers carrying everything. Spread the work, let people choose their part, and say thanks.
Shift signups
Break big jobs into shifts with capacities. Volunteers pick the slot that works for them. Nobody gets voluntold.
Supervisors & auto-assignment
Name a point person per role and let auto-assignment fill gaps fairly instead of leaning on the usual suspects.
Volunteer perks
Thank the people doing the work. Volunteer tickets can make their registration free, with the perk spelled out up front.
One volunteer picture
A neighborhood-wide view of unfilled roles across every upcoming event, so gaps get spotted before event day.
Communication that gets people there
Turnout follows communication. Invitations, reminders, and confirmations run themselves, with easy opt-outs so you stay welcome in inboxes.
Invitations
Invite verified neighbors and past attendees who haven't registered yet, with one-click opt-outs per neighborhood.
Automatic reminders
Pick the timings once and reminders send themselves. Customize the wording per event or across a whole series.
RSVP confirmations
Ask registrants to confirm or decline before event day, so your food order matches who actually shows up.
Event updates
Message registrants with filters (everyone, checked-in only, or specific ticket types) for rain plans and last-minute logistics.
Setup that survives volunteer turnover
Committees change every year. Templates, recurring series, and past-event history mean the next organizer inherits a playbook, not a blank page.
Quick templates
Block party, yard sale, movie night: tickets, volunteer roles, and activities included. Save your own events as templates for next year's committee.
Recurring series
Monthly game night, weekly walks. Series keep the schedule, remind you to create the next one, and carry the setup forward.
Themes & your page
A neighborhood page that feels like home, with colors, patterns, and fonts to match every event.
Share-ready banners
Auto-generated flyers and social share images with QR codes and short links, for the group chat and the clubhouse corkboard.
Registration that respects your neighbors
No accounts to create, no apps to install. Registering for a block party should be easier than buying a concert ticket.
Smart waitlists
Automatic waitlist management when events fill up.
Registration approvals
Review registrations for neighborhood-only events.
Custom questions
Ask questions during registration and collect exactly what you need.
Easy check-in
QR code check-in that works offline. No app, no wifi needed.
Calendar integration
Add to calendar with one click for Apple, Google, and Outlook.
Wristbands & meal tickets
Tell the door what each party gets — a wristband per person, two drink tickets per adult, a band for every kid. Meal tickets redeem at a food-table station with the same QR, or from the attendee's own phone.
Money without the mess
Nothing sours a committee faster than money confusion. Keep it transparent, low-fee, and out of anyone's personal accounts.
Your community's account
Ticket sales and dues land in the neighborhood's (or club's) own connected account, never commingled with a volunteer's Venmo.
Clear financial summaries
Per-event financial summaries, refund handling, and payouts (including mailed checks), so the board sees exactly where money went.
Low, transparent fees
RSVPs for free events cost nothing, and paid events keep fees low, so more of every dollar stays in the community.
Chapter two
Build community life
Clubs, local partners, contests, and the boundaries that keep it all genuinely yours.
Interest groups, woven into the neighborhood
The interest groups inside your neighborhood: started by neighbors, run by neighbors, woven into your community's calendar.
Petition to start one
Propose a club, pick its theme, and share one link to gather signatures. Choose what signers provide (name, phone, address, even a custom question) and whether signatures are public, manager-visible, or anonymous. Hit the goal and it becomes a real club, branding and all.
A page of its own
Every club gets a themed landing page, short share link, and social share banner, plus membership with optional boundary checks, application questions, and organizer approvals.
Full event toolkit
Club events get everything neighborhood events do: tickets, recurring series, reminders, volunteers, check-in lists, surveys, and photo galleries. Free member events can assume attendance with a simple confirm-or-decline headcount.
Dues & payments
Clubs connect their own payment account, so dues and ticket sales go straight to the club, never mixed with neighborhood funds.
Member polls
Let members vote on what's next: book picks, meeting days, outing ideas. Confirm the winner and turn it into an event in one click.
Part of the neighborhood
Affiliated clubs cross-post onto the neighborhood calendar and directory, and club event pages show what else is happening nearby. Organizers can even spin a recurring event off into its own club.
Vendors & partner events
Bring in a food truck, entertainer, or local service and run the event together, with a real revenue split instead of a spreadsheet and an IOU.
Partner events
A dedicated event type for events you run with vendors, with everything a hosted event has (tickets, check-in, reminders), plus the vendors right on the event page and a customizable "organized by" credit.
Automatic revenue splits
Set each vendor's share of net revenue; more than one vendor is fine. After the event, settlement runs automatically and each share transfers to the vendor's own payout account.
Clean books for everyone
The financial summary and its PDF report show the whole split (gross, fees, refunds, each vendor's share, and the community's remainder) with payout status per party.
Vendors run themselves
Each vendor gets their own account: profile, photo, links, and payout setup. Organizers choose exactly what a vendor can see per event: attendees, financials, or check-in.
A public vendor directory
Every public vendor gets a profile page and a spot in the vendor directory, so communities can find local partners and vendors get found.
Easy to join
Communities can add vendors directly, or a business can register as a vendor, and we review each registration and set them up.
Events that stay truly local
Included with paid plansDefine exactly who belongs to your neighborhood, so events stay local and secure.
Custom boundary map
Draw your neighborhood boundaries on an interactive map. Define exactly which streets and areas belong to your community.
Event address checks
Automatically verify registrants live within your boundaries. Keep neighborhood-only events truly local.
Verification links
Extend address verification to other services like Facebook groups with custom verification links.
More than events
The in-between moments that make a neighborhood feel like one: contests, photos, feedback, and shared stuff.
Photo contests
Run fun photo contests with simple community voting.
Event surveys
Gather feedback automatically after events with customizable questions and smart conditional logic.
Inventory tracking
Track shared community items with QR check-out, return reminders, and overdue notifications.
Photo galleries
Share event photos with built-in face detection and privacy overlays. Token-based uploads with organizer approval.
Your community, in your pocket
Every page on NeighborlyEvents already works great in your phone's browser, so the app is completely optional. Its job is to streamline the moments where a native app shines:
- Going to events: tickets and check-in codes a tap away, even offline, with reminders in your pocket — and a list of what you'll be handed at the door.
- Volunteering: one-tap shift check-in, team messages, and an opt-in live team map.
- Running the day: live check-in stats, waitlist promotion, and the roster at the gate instead of a desk.
- Club life: votes and updates arrive as a gentle push instead of another email.
Free with participating communities and clubs. No account or app is ever required to attend.
