How Palaner picks what's on in Sydney

There are more events on in Sydney in any given week than anyone can read through — which is why most people end up at whatever their feed happened to show them.

Palaner reads every source at once, removes the duplicates, and ranks what's left against what it knows about you. Right now that's 977 events happening in Sydney.

Every pick comes with the reason it was picked — the taste it matched, the real price, and how far it is. You can tell it when it's wrong, and the next list is different.

Questions about events in Sydney

What is there to do in Sydney this week?
Palaner is showing 977 events on in Sydney right now, pulled from every listings site, ticket seller and promoter newsletter we can reach for Australia. The list is ranked, not alphabetical: tell Palaner what you like and the order changes.
Is this a list of the usual tourist attractions?
No. Palaner only shows things that are actually happening on a date — gigs, club nights, markets, talks, socials, screenings, food events. Permanent attractions don't appear, because they aren't events.
How is this different from an events listings site?
A listings site shows you everything and lets you filter. Palaner reads every listings site at once, removes the duplicates, and ranks what's left against your taste, your budget and how far you'll travel. You get nine things, not nine hundred.
Does Palaner cost anything?
No. It's free in any browser, and it isn't a ticket seller — it links out to wherever the event is actually sold.
