Google is displaying my old event over my new one. What can I do?

Google controls how and when pages appear in its search results, so an older Eventfinda listing may sometimes appear above a newer event.

This can happen while Google is still crawling and indexing the newer listing. Over time, the search results may update as Google processes the new event information.

To help customers find the correct event:

  • make sure your new Eventfinda listing is complete and published
  • use a clear event title, date and venue
  • share the new event URL through your website, social media and other promotional channels
  • avoid deleting an old Eventfinda listing solely because it is appearing in Google search results

If an old page has been removed or significantly changed, Google may take some time to update its search results.

Eventfinda cannot control the order in which Google displays search results or guarantee when a newer event listing will replace an older one.
