Feature Your Event

At YGKEvents.com, submitting events will always be free. However we offer the option for you to add additional promotion to your event and get more eyes on it as a Featured YGK Event.

There are no guarantees that this will sell out your event or anything, however it will get the most eyes possible in Kingston on your event, reaching out to over 30,000 people residing in Kingston or surrounding area alone.

The cost for being a Featured YGK Event is just $100(With $20 going to charity), and it gets you the following:
