I clicked around a little... I notice that Los Angeles, when you choose Meetups, displays events in other places like Norwalk or SF.

I need to do some cleanup. Meetups are easy to get, but very low quality and uncategorized.
What do you think about the events categories? do you miss anything? Which ones of them you care about? Would you add any?
I think the categories overall capture a lot of categories. It would be nice to see parks and what you can do in them (i.e. basketball court, kids play structure, hiking trails, etc) but I have no idea how easy that information is to surface :)
A couple suggestions I would make are:
- combine reoccurring events. For example: https://www.airovic.com/los-angeles/street-markets-in-los-an... shows each of the farmers markets over and over. It drowns out the fact that there are multiple farmers markets in the same weekend. Maybe a quick fix would be to sort by date?
- have a concept of "distance from me". It doesn't have to be a map, but at least being able to say "within X miles of 'bleh' " would make things easier to see what is nearby.
- have a link to the information source. For example, if I want to see more details about a festival or concert, I don't see how to do so currently. If you start with it now you can work out over time how to transparently change the links to referral links and get some $$ like you are doing with the stay options.
