  • When using Key Word search, select only 1 or 2 other search options to improve your results.
  • The Key Word search looks for the word(s) you enter in all fields or you can choose only Show Name or Promoter.
  • For example a search on the word "clown" will find any event with the word "clown" in the Show Name, City, Description, Activities, and so on unless you select Promoter Only or Show Name Only.
  • "Exact Match" means to search both/all words exactly as entered. Otherwise it finds all words in any order.
  • It is better to not use the plural of a word, it will find plurals from the singular. i.e. "clown" it will find "clowns" and "clown".
