10 Awesome WordPress Themes for Events
Many businesses manage professional events on a regular basis. They use public and private events to connect with their leads, clients, fans, and everyone in between. If you find yourself throwing many events on a monthly basis, you are better off creating an online presence just to cover them.

Hi there
Nice overview, but I feel perhaps our GeoPlaces v4 theme also deserved to be there. I know it's not strictly events oriented, but if you turn off the homepage map and places – it's events all the way 🙂
Keep up the good work

Great list 🙂
I note that a lot of event themes are based on a calendar.
I'm developping a premium event theme at the moment and I don't use calendar. This theme will allow you to manage speakers, presentations (conference, workshop), schedule, sponsors (gold, silver, bronze), staff members … with custom post types and metaboxes instead.
There are not a good or bad way to manage an event web site, just different solutions.
I try to finish my event theme for this summer. If you are interested, you can fill the form on my coming soon page (kattagami.com)
