💡 Path 1: "I have an idea"

Good for anyone still deciding the format, looking for a co-host or venue, or just wondering if it's a fit.

  1. Fill out the idea form. It takes about five minutes. A working title and one sentence is enough to start.
  2. Your idea shows up in the event pipeline below so other organizers can see what's brewing. Your contact info stays private.
  3. We follow up if you asked for help with a venue, co-host, or speakers, and we'll connect you with people working the same ground.
  4. When you're ready Create your Luma event and submit it to the MCW calendar no later than Jan 11 (steps in Path 2).

📮 Path 2: "My event is ready"

  1. Create your event on Luma at luma.com or add it from your event provider of your choice! You only need a name to start, and you can edit the rest later.
  2. Paste this line into your event description: "By registering for this event, you agree to share your registration information with the organizers of Minneapolis Climate Week."
  3. Add [email protected] as a co-host with permission to manage the event. That's how your event shows up on the central calendar.
  4. Submit it to luma.com/mpls-cw: choose "Submit Event," then "Submit Existing Luma Event," and paste your event's URL.
  5. We review it and approve it, usually within a few days. If something's missing, we'll tell you!
  6. Log it in the idea form too if you didn't start there. It takes two minutes and keeps the pipeline complete.
