Things to Do API

Things to Do API is an API and MCP server for local events, including pop-ups, one-off events, concerts, and other listings. It currently covers the San Francisco Bay Area. The creator built it while developing personalization and recommendation apps.

The creator had difficulty finding this event data in one place. They note that agents typically rely on tool calls or web search, which can be slow, and that on-demand scraping is another option. They wanted a faster dataset and could not find an existing provider covering their mix of event types.
