What is Forest City Events?
Forest City Events is a community-run events calendar for London, Ontario. No algorithms, no ads, no corporate sponsors. Just people sharing what's happening in our city.
We focus on grassroots, community-driven events — the kind of stuff that makes London worth living in but doesn't always make it onto the mainstream radar.
What We List
- Community organizing — rallies, town halls, solidarity actions, mutual aid
- Arts and culture — local music, theatre, open mics, gallery shows, film screenings
- Learning — workshops, skill shares, lectures, book clubs, popular education
- Food and gathering — community meals, food drives, markets, potlucks
- Movement and outdoors — group rides, walks, sports, outdoor activities
- Family and youth — kid-friendly events, youth programming
What We Don't List
- Corporate-sponsored events or brand activations
- Events requiring expensive tickets with no sliding scale or accessibility options
- Virtual/online events unless they are specifically London-focused
- Events that conflict with our values of anti-racism, anti-colonialism, feminism, and 2SLGBTQI+ liberation

Who Runs This?

No one owns this. It belongs to the community.
