Today is the 5th Anniversary of the Events (previously Tolkien Calendar) page on the Tolkien Guide.
The first event was created 2021-03-18 by Urulókë with announcement on the site, https://www.tolkienguide.com/modules/n ... ewtopic.php?topic_id=3969
As of the April 12th, 2026 we have listed 1237 events
The date of the first event was 2021-04-12 and was a posting about the excellent Ted Nasmith illustrated Silmarillion's being released, in Trade and Deluxe format, https://www.tolkienguide.com/modules/n ... t_id=30253#forumpost30253
As well as listing Online and Global events, we have covered events in the following countries so far.
Whilst it is great to look back on the Events Page, it hopefully is a really useful tool for anyone interested in Tolkien and finding out what is happening. You can access the site from the banner at the top of the site, under Events and can see Upcoming and Past Events, if you are using the desktop version of the site the next 4 upcoming events appear on the right of the site, and finally it is available directly at https://www.tolkienguide.com/events
We plan a refresh of the Events page and have plans to make it more useful for Tolkien Events, but if you notice any event that you think should be included, please PM me so that I can add it, I know we have missed some events because we only found out about them after they had finished.
