Event Qualifications
What Qualifies as an Event?
We define events as any social gathering or activity that is open to the general public. Whether it’s a festival, fundraiser, launch party, workshop or even a Wednesday Wing Night; it qualifies!
Understanding Qualifications:
Planning an sale? That’s awesome—tie it to an event such as an anniversary or a customer appreciation day. Our goal is to keep the invitations open, so events exclusive to members or private meetings won’t qualify.
