Introduction

MARSM Canada is a promoter of Arab music and arts events in Toronto, Montreal, Ottawa and other Canadian cities, from live concerts and Arabic stand-up comedy to Arab pop club nights. Its events calendar is a good source for anyone following the Arab and SWANA cultural scene in Canada.

How to scrape Marsm step by step

1. Paste one or more Marsm URLs into Start URLs.
2. Set Maximum number of results to how many events you want per URL.
3. Optionally choose an Event status, a City, or a date range with Date from and Date to.
4. Click Start and wait for the run to finish.
5. Download your data in JSON, CSV, Excel, or HTML from the Output tab.

Input

• Start URLs: Marsm URLs to scrape. Supported pages: the All Events page, the home page, the Events Archive, tag pages (such as https://www.marsm.ca/upcoming-events?tag=Faraj+2026), artist tour pages (such as https://www.marsm.ca/faraj-suleiman-canada-2026) and single event pages. Tags in the URL are kept in the results.
• Maximum number of results: how many events to collect for each start URL. Use 0 for no limit.
• Event status: upcoming events (default), past events, or both.
• City: only keep events in this city, for example Toronto, Montreal or Ottawa. Accents are optional.

Notes

• Ticket prices are not listed on Marsm. Tickets are sold on partner ticketing sites, so the actor returns the ticket link and sale status instead of a price.
• Local times follow the time zone used by the Marsm website (Toronto time), also for events in other provinces.
• A few older events have no structured address, so city, province and postal code are null for them. The city filter still matches the city in the event title.
• The Events Archive page always returns past events, whatever the Event status is.
• Other pages such as About, Gallery or the cart are not supported and are skipped.

FAQ

How many results can I scrape?

You can set any number in Maximum number of results, or 0 for no limit. The actor keeps going until it reaches your limit or runs out of events. Marsm lists around 140 events in total, including past ones.

Do I need a Marsm account?

No. The actor only collects publicly available data. You do not need to log in or provide any account details.

Can I scrape data on a schedule?

Yes. Use Apify Schedules to run the actor every day or week and get new events automatically.

Why are some fields empty?

Some events simply do not show every piece of information, such as a tagline or a ticket link for older events. When a field is not available on the website, it is returned as null.

Can I request a new feature or filter?

Yes. Right now the actor supports start URLs with event status, city and date filters. If you need other filters or inputs, such as genre or venue, get in touch and they can be added.

Can I get a custom or private version?

Yes. The actor can be customized for your workflow, delivered as a private version, or a new scraper can be built for a different website. Use the contact details below.
