Facebook has introduced a new way for event organizers to understand how their online events connect with real-world activity. The company now links Facebook Event Insights with popular times data from physical locations. This helps hosts see when people are most likely to show up in person.

Event creators can check their Facebook dashboard to find insights about who viewed or responded to their event. Now they also get information about foot traffic near the event location. This includes busy hours and visitor trends from Google Maps and other public sources. The goal is to help planners pick better times and places.

For example, if a local band schedules a show at a café, they can see if the venue is usually crowded on that night. If it is, they might expect more walk-ins. If not, they could boost online promotion. This mix of online interest and offline movement gives a clearer picture of real attendance potential.

Small businesses and community groups benefit most. They often rely on local turnout but lack tools to predict it. With this update, they can plan smarter without extra cost. Facebook says the data stays private. No personal details are shared. Only general trends appear in the reports.

The feature is rolling out globally to all public event pages. Users do not need to turn it on. It appears automatically when location data is available. Facebook hopes this helps make events more successful by matching digital reach with real-life patterns. Organizers just need to create an event with a clear address. The system does the rest.
