Frequently asked questions
How current is this guide?
It's regenerated automatically from the village, library, and park district's own listings, typically several times a week - not a one-time write-up that goes stale.
Is this every event or business, or just what's listed here?
Only what the linked public sources publish. For full details, hours, or anything not listed here, check the official page each item links to.
How do I see what's happening in Wheeling this specific weekend?
See the weekend view, which only shows items with a known date in the coming Friday-Sunday.
Can I add an event, or suggest a business for the directory?
Yes - submit an event and a person reviews it before it goes live, or a business owner can inquire about a listing.
