JPEG files only
No text or logos
No mosiac/collage images

WATCH: HOW TO MAKE A GREAT LISTING

Example of common listing image mistakes:

We ask you don't use text in your images as often it doesn't format well as a listing image and either gets cut off or is too small to read (as seen above!)
Please don't mosaic images - listing images are much more successful if they are just one photo that is representative of the event

Example of a successful listing image:

One photo which accurately represents the event
High quality image
No text

Tips for writing great event listing text

Your listing should:

Start with a few sentences of clear description of what your event is e.g. Sunshine Express is a 60 minute musical theatre performance or Roots is an exhibition of artwork by 10 painters.
An introduction to you as a creative/creatives - context to the work/inspirations, awards won etc.
Listing text should ideally be written in 3rd person.
