Hi all. Does anyone know of a site where I can search for events/concerts etc by date or date range? I'm looking for something similar to Ticketmaster (for those of you who know what that is). I've checked out www.topticketline.fr, but there are very few events listed on here. I've also looked at the fnac site, but I can't see anywhere on the site where you can search via date. I know I can go to some specific sites (eg. opera) to search by date, but that means I need to know what all these specialist sites are - a bit difficult to do when you don't know what you don't know. Thanks in advance, Mez.

I've already tried these, but there is little choice for now. I might have to leave my search until closer to the time I'll be there (October). Also, I asked how you can search via date. I can't see that;s an option at the fnac site - if this option is available, can someone guide me through it? Thanks.

To search FNAC by date, you must click "recherche avancee" and then scroll down to "période". Don't forget that days and months are reversed in France, so June 1 is shown as 1/6/07.

Yes, but here we say "April the twelfth", not "the twelfth of April".

andi - and even some Europeans can't get it right. The stoopid Swedes write it like this: 06072007 - which would mean TODAY the 7th of June 2007. Which happens to be my babyboy's 20th birthday !

In Israel we put the day before the month. I used to find that confusing, but after living here for 36 years, it now comes naturally.
