How it works
You choose one of eleven categories (caterer, DJs and musicians, entertainment, decoration, transport…), your town and a radius in kilometres. The directory is open to everyone: no email address, no account needed to browse.
Every provider is ranked on four criteria: profile quality, responsiveness to requests, client reviews and activity on We Event. The counter is reset every quarter: in November, the ranking covers the current autumn.
Asking for a quote costs nothing, and the request goes straight to the provider you chose, with no middleman. Their replies, your details, the time the power goes off in the square: everything is kept in a dated message thread, linked to the event.
01. Your area
The town festival needs musicians and a caterer for the refreshment bar. The forum needs entertainment and a photographer. The Christmas market needs decorations and shuttle buses from the car parks. Eleven categories cover these needs: caterer, DJs and musicians, entertainment, decoration, photographer, videographer, florist, transport, venue, fashion and beauty, wedding planner. You search by town and radius, then read the profiles, photos and ratings, free of charge and without creating an account. An officer preparing three events can search for all three.
02. The ranking
To justify a choice, “we know them” isn't enough. The ranking rests on four criteria: profile quality, responsiveness to requests, client reviews and activity on We Event (network, training, consistency, sales). It is reset every quarter, so it describes the provider's last few months. A subscription gives no bonus: without reviews, responsiveness or activity during the quarter, a provider doesn't move up. When someone asks you “why this one?”, you will have criteria to point to.

Four criteria, reset every quarter.
03. In writing
Signing up is free and opens a management workspace: each event gathers its quotes received, its messages with each provider and its guest list. What was agreed is written down and dated, so you can reread it, and so can whoever takes over the file after you. If your public event sells tickets, online ticketing is available: a 3% commission incl. VAT and bank charges are deducted from ticket revenue, and the buyer pays the listed price.

Frequently asked questions
The providers: they are the ones who subscribe to their management tools. The local authority is charged nothing (not for searching, reading profiles, requesting quotes or the management workspace) and no commission is taken on contracts. Fees only apply if you sell tickets online: 3% incl. VAT plus bank charges, deducted from ticket revenue.
No. Signing up is free and involves no commitment: you buy nothing by opening an account, or by browsing the directory, which doesn't require an account anyway. Ordering a service, however, remains subject to your public procurement rules, whatever they are: We Event neither replaces them nor exempts you from them. The directory is for finding and comparing; the purchasing procedure remains yours.
The conversation takes place in the event's message thread, between your account and the provider concerned. It is neither public nor shared with other providers. Your quote request goes only to the professional you chose, without being sent out to a list. The thread stays in your workspace, dated and readable, and doesn't depend on any one officer's inbox.
It is available for your public events (concerts, shows, festive dinners) and is run from your management workspace, free once you sign up. The buyer pays the listed price. A 3% commission incl. VAT and bank charges (1.5% + €0.25 per order) are deducted from ticket revenue.
Yes. The workspace brings your events together, and each keeps its own file: quotes received, messages, guests. The June festival doesn't get mixed up with the December market, and the history of one year's edition waits for the next in the same place. On handover day, the successor opens the files in the workspace, without having to dig through the department's email archives.
