The Bellingham Regional Chamber of Commerce has announced the relaunch of WhatCALENDAR.com, a newly refreshed community events calendar that is intended to be a go-to resource for all events happening in Whatcom County. This free platform allows residents, visitors, event planners, businesses, schools and other organizations to discover and post events that are open to the public, fostering a vibrant, well-connected community.

The redesigned WhatCALENDAR.com offers a user-friendly interface and enhanced features to make it easier than ever to stay informed about the diverse array of events taking place in Whatcom County. From concerts and festivals to workshops and local markets, the calendar includes something for everyone.

“This is a calendar that has been created to benefit the entire community,” said Guy Occhiogrosso, CEO of the Bellingham Regional Chamber of Commerce. “Our goal is to ensure that all events, regardless of their nature or target audience, have a central place to be shared and discovered.”

Unlike other event calendars that cater to specific audiences, such as tourism, schools or industry associations, WhatCALENDAR.com is a comprehensive hub for all community events. This inclusivity ensures that no event is overlooked and that community members have access to a wide variety of activities and happenings.

In addition to serving as a central repository for events, WhatCALENDAR.com is also a valuable tool for event planners. By providing a single platform where dates and events are posted, planners can avoid scheduling conflicts with major events and find opportunities to align with complementary activities.

“In the past, this calendar has not only served those looking for events but also helped event planners coordinate more effectively,” Occhiogrosso added. “It’s about creating a more cohesive community experience where events can thrive without unnecessary competition.”

The Bellingham Regional Chamber of Commerce invites everyone in Whatcom County to take advantage of this free resource. Posting events is straightforward and can be done directly on the website, making it accessible for individuals, businesses and organizations alike. By contributing to the calendar, users can help ensure it remains a robust and comprehensive guide to everything happening in the community.

Visit WhatCALENDAR.com to find upcoming events or to post your own.
