SERP Features: Events

Events on Google show events happening at certain times and locations. For example, concerts, lectures, or festivals. Details such as date, time, location, website, and organization are shown in the block. This makes the SERP feature easy for users to find, discover, share, and attend events through Google Search results.

If your event is ranked, you could benefit from increased chances of discovery and attendance.

Here’s what events look like on desktop results:

How Semrush Collects Data About Events

• When we scan a keyword’s SERP, we identify whether or not an event is present anywhere on the results page.
• If an event is present on the SERP, you’ll see its gray icon in the SF column.
• Since we cannot currently collect URLs related to events, we cannot say if a queried domain is featured and cannot save it as a position.
