- Do I need to have a business ID to organize events?
- You don't. You can organize events as a volunteer in your free time without expecting any payment (except for the experiences and new friends), and any personal costs, e.g., for purchased ingredients or renting a grilling spot, can be shared among all participants by agreement.
- You only need a business ID if you are organizing a paid event. The organizer is required to issue a receipt to all participants at the venue when they pay. If this receipt is not issued, the organizer is not entitled to demand payment from the participants, and the event is considered voluntary.
- How do I get permission to create my own events?
- You need to contact us by email or approach the organizer of an event in person who can vouch for you. Every applicant for a permit is checked to prevent artificially created accounts.
- Why do I have to create an account and log in when basic information about the event is publicly visible without registration?
- Sometimes events get postponed, change location, or shift times. If you're not logged in, the organizer cannot contact you personally about these changes. By logging in, your contact information becomes visible to each other, allowing you to adjust the event details as you'd like. Last but not least, organizers deserve to know who and how many participants will show up.
- What do I need to provide when creating an account?
- Mandatory fields are first name, last name, and email. Optional is a phone number. This information is never publicly displayed and is only accessible to the event organizer after the participant logs in.
- What does the INDOOR BBQ label on the map mean?
- INDOOR BBQ mainly indicates establishments with skilled chefs that you can visit on your way to a barbecue, from a barbecue, or instead of a barbecue.
- What if my favorite restaurant isn't on the 4UBBQ map on the website?
- Only restaurants or other similar culinary businesses can contact us at info@4ubbq.com to promote themselves and decide for themselves whether they want to advertise their brand for free on our site. However, you can encourage your favorite place to take this step.
- Can I host events abroad?
- You can host events anywhere in the world. When creating an event, you choose the language it will be held in to avoid language barriers that could arise among participants who speak different languages. It's assumed that the organizer knows the language in which the event will take place.
- Does there have to be grilling at the event?
- No, not necessarily. Sometimes at a regular barbecue, someone might not feel like grilling food but is mainly there for the experience and friendly atmosphere. That's why your event can take place as a way to meet and get to know people before the main barbecue, which you can later enjoy privately with your new friends.
- What is a 2UBBQ event?
- This name indicates that it is intended for singles, for the purpose of meeting people and looking for a future partner. The organizer decides at their own responsibility what style the event will take place in.
