Automatically extract university open day information and events from opendays.com using a high-performance Cheerio crawler.

Features

  • Ultra-Fast Crawling: By targeting calendar pages instead of waiting for heavy detailed pages, it bypasses the strict rate-limits and timeouts on opendays.com and provides near-instant results.
  • Smart Subject Filtering: If searching for Aerospace specifically, the scraper smartly filters the open days to only include the universities that are known to offer Aerospace Engineering. For other inputs, it uses standard keyword matching against the university names and URLs.
  • Customizable Dates: Extract open days for specific months and years.

Input

This actor takes the following inputs:

  • specialization (String): The subject or specialization you want to find open days for (e.g., Aerospace).
  • year (String): The year to search for open days (e.g., 2026). If left blank, it defaults to checking standard future months.
  • month (String): The specific month to search (e.g., September).
  • audience (Dropdown): Filter the events by the target audience using the corresponding number:
    • 0: Everyone / Any
    • 8: School/College Groups (Ages 7-11)
    • 2: School/College Groups (Ages 11-14)
    • 3: School/College Groups (Ages 14-16)
    • 4: School/College Groups (Ages 16-18) (Pre-undergraduate)
    • 10: College Groups (Ages 19+)
    • 5: Individuals (Undergraduate / General)
    • 6: Teachers (CPD)
    • 7: Parents
    • 9: Families
  • maxItems (Integer): Maximum number of events to scrape (default: 100).

Output

The actor stores the results in the default dataset. Each item will contain:

  • institution: The name of the university or college hosting the open day.
  • url: The link to the institution's open day page on opendays.com.
  • month: The calendar month of the event.
  • year: The year of the event.
