⬇️ Input

Setting	What it does
Search events	Words to search for: a topic (Comedy), a place (Chicago) or both (Jazz Chicago)
Or Facebook Page, event or search links	Page links (upcoming and past events), event links, or Facebook event search links with filters
Max events per search or link	How many events to get from each search or link. Leave it empty to get every event it lists

A Page link (https://www.facebook.com/NASA) gives the Page's upcoming events, then its past events. Add /upcoming_hosted_events or /past_hosted_events to the link to get only one of the two.

To use Facebook's search filters (dates, categories, places), search for events on Facebook without logging in, set the filters, and paste the address of the results page, for example https://www.facebook.com/events/search/?q=yoga&filters=....

Example: two searches, 50 events each.

{
  "searchQueries": ["Comedy New York", "Jazz Chicago"],
  "maxEvents": 50
}

Example: a Page's events and one event.

{
  "startUrls": [
    "https://www.facebook.com/NASA",
    "https://www.facebook.com/events/1474625497812411/"
  ]
}

⬆️ Output

You get one row per event. You can view them as a table in Apify Console or download them as Excel, CSV, JSON, HTML or XML.

Each run also saves a short report with how many searches, links and events it covered, and any link it could not scrape with the reason (for example, an event that was deleted or is not public).

How can I use Facebook events data?

• Event discovery: build listings of concerts, classes, meetups and festivals in a city
• Market research: see which events draw the most people going and interested
• Lead generation: find venues, promoters and organizers that host events
• Competitor monitoring: follow the events other venues and brands host
• Local marketing: plan your own events around what is already on in your area

❓FAQ

How many events can I get from one search?

Facebook shows visitors a limited list for each search: from a handful to a few hundred events in our tests, depending on the words (for example about 30 for music, 60 for comedy and over 200 for yoga). The list also changes between runs. To get more, run several searches (for example a topic with different cities) or use Facebook's date filters through a search link.

How many events can I get from a Page?

Every upcoming and past event the Page shows to visitors.

Why are the going and interested numbers different from what I see on Facebook?

They are the numbers Facebook shows at the time of the run. They change as people answer.

Why is there no end date for some events?

The host did not set one. Facebook then shows only the start.

What about repeating events?

A repeating event (for example a weekly class) comes back once, with the date and link of its next date, eventFrequency (such as WEEKLY) and childEventsCount, the number of its dates.

Why does a link come back as "not found"?

The Page or event does not exist, is not public, or the Page does not show events to visitors. Such links are listed in the run report; they do not fail the run.

Do I need a Facebook account?

No. You don't need a Facebook account, cookies or an API key.

Can I connect Facebook Events Scraper to other tools or AI agents?

Yes. Start runs and download results with the Apify API or the Python and JavaScript clients, send results to Make, Zapier, n8n, Google Sheets or Slack with Apify integrations and webhooks, or let AI assistants and agents run it through the Apify MCP server at mcp.apify.com.

Is it legal to scrape Facebook events?

This scraper only collects events that their hosts chose to make public. It does not collect private data such as e-mail addresses or phone numbers, or the names of the people who answered. Event data can still contain personal data, which may be protected by laws such as GDPR, so only scrape it for a legitimate reason and ask a lawyer if you are unsure. You can read more in Is web scraping legal?

Facebook Events Scraper is an independent tool. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by or sponsored by Facebook or Meta.
