Frequently asked questions about OWL live
OWL live is a digital platform that bundles the cultural offerings of the Ostwestfalen-Lippe region.
Events from everyone - for everyone
The platform is aimed at two target groups: Those interested in culture should be made more aware of what the region has to offer. Cultural professionals are to be offered an information pool that facilitates the planning of their events and makes their events more visible.
In this way, OWL live will become a calendar of events that makes the diversity of the region available to a variety of people: Excursion destinations for visiting friends, parties, art in off-spaces, the latest exhibitions in major museums, weekly and flea markets, festivals, family events. It's all there.
Yes, the services offered by OWL live are valuable, but free of charge
OWL live bundles the events from various event calendars in East Westphalia-Lippe on a single platform.
This automatically creates a greater reach with the same effort.
The events are entered live via our interfaces with the regional event calendars, destination.data and the event notifier in OWL. If you already have an event in a local event calendar with which we have an interface, you do not have to enter it again. If you are unsure or have any other questions about content, please contact our editorial team.
In this case, please send an email to redaktion@owl-live.de or get in touch via our contact form.
