Last updated: September 1, 2026

Overview

Yakima Valley Events (yakimavalley.events) is a free local events calendar for the Yakima Valley. By using this site, you agree to these terms. If you do not agree, please do not use the site.

Questions? Email hello@yakimavalley.events. For how we handle personal information, see our Privacy Policy.

Using the Site

You may browse the calendar, share links to event pages, and subscribe to the Weekender newsletter for personal, non-commercial use.

You agree not to:

  • Use the site in a way that disrupts service, overloads our systems, or interferes with other visitors
  • Attempt to access non-public areas, scrape in ways that ignore reasonable limits we may publish, or bypass technical protections
  • Misrepresent your relationship with Yakima Valley Events or imply our endorsement without permission
  • Use automated tools to copy or republish listings without following the attribution rules below

We may update access rules, including rate limits on automated requests, as the site grows.

Event Listings

Event details on this site come from public sources, organizers, and community submissions. We work to keep listings accurate and current, but we do not run these events and we do not guarantee that dates, times, locations, prices, or descriptions are correct.

Always confirm details with the organizer or venue before you attend.Yakima Valley Events is not responsible for cancellations, changes, ticket sales, safety, or anything that happens at a listed event.

Submitting Events

If you email us from our Add Event page or otherwise send event information for publication, you represent that you have the right to share that material and you grant Yakima Valley Events a non-exclusive license to publish, edit, format, and display it on the calendar and in related materials (such as the Weekender newsletter or social posts).

You remain responsible for the accuracy of what you submit. We may decline, edit, or remove listings at our discretion.

Republishing and Attribution

We welcome partners, media, and other calendars that help people find valley events. If you copy, aggregate, syndicate, or republish event information from Yakima Valley Events, you must follow these rules:

  • Link each event to its detail page on https://yakimavalley.events (the public URL for that specific event), not only our homepage or an unrelated third-party source
  • Credit Yakima Valley Events by name, with a visible link to https://yakimavalley.events
  • Do not remove, hide, or replace our credit with a generic label such as "local events" or another site's brand
  • Do not present our listings as your own original work or imply that we endorse your product or service

Proper attribution helps visitors find the source listing and supports a healthier local events ecosystem. If you republish at scale and want to discuss partnership or licensing, contact us at hello@yakimavalley.events.

Intellectual Property

The Yakima Valley Events name, branding, site design, and original editorial copy are protected by applicable copyright and trademark laws. Event facts (dates, venues, public descriptions) may come from third parties; our selection, organization, and presentation of that information is ours.

You may link to our pages and share event URLs freely. Copying large portions of the site or our listing database for republication requires compliance with the attribution rules above.

Disclaimers

The site is provided "as is" without warranties of any kind. To the fullest extent permitted by law, Yakima Valley Events disclaims liability for any indirect, incidental, or consequential damages arising from your use of the site or attendance at any listed event.

Some jurisdictions do not allow certain limitations; in those cases, our liability is limited to the maximum extent allowed by law.

Changes to These Terms

We may update these terms as the site grows. We will revise the date at the top of this page when we make meaningful changes. Continued use of the site after an update means you accept the revised terms.
