# Use event calendars, side events, Going, and subscriptions

> Plan an event week, signal attendance, and follow the calendar without losing the official registration path.

Event calendars bring a conference or ecosystem week into one view. Use them to compare side events, mark what you plan to attend, and follow updates while keeping each organizer’s official registration page in view.

## Plan an event week

1. Open an event calendar and confirm its city, dates, timezone, organizer, and official links.
2. Filter or browse the side events that fit your schedule and goals.
3. Open each side event to check the venue context, audience, capacity notes, host, and external registration destination.
4. Select **Going** when you intend to attend. Subscribe or follow when that control is available.

## Understand the signals

**Going** is a planning and discovery signal. It is not a ticket, registration, entry guarantee, or attendance record. Complete any required registration with the organizer and keep the confirmation they provide.

A subscription helps you follow calendar activity; notification delivery still depends on your notification settings. Calendar and side-event details can change at the source, so recheck the official destination before traveling.

## Build useful professional context

Use attendee and company context to identify relevant builders, partners, DevRel teams, or hiring conversations. Send a specific message and respect message requests. Do not scrape attendee lists or assume that a Going signal means someone has agreed to meet.
