Frequently asked questions

How does Outgoing pick alternative music concert in Manhattan?

I go through what's actually on locally and keep the ones worth going to. Nothing pay-to-play, no filler, just the things I'd text a friend about.

Are these picks up to date?

Yes. Past events drop off on their own and the list refreshes every day, so what you see is what's actually happening.

Can Outgoing recommend things for me personally?

That's the whole point. Tell me what you're into once, and I'll send you things that fit, by email and chat.

Do I need to download an app?

No. I live in your messages and inbox. Start from here, and we can keep the conversation going from your phone.

Does Outgoing cost anything?

No, it's free.
