How to Submit Your Event or Register Your Community

A step-by-step guide to getting listed on Migrants Hub –

plus the editorial standards our review team applies to every submission.

Who can submit?

Community pages: community organisations, cultural associations, faith groups, not-for-profits, councils, education providers and support services working with or within migrant communities.
Events: any of the above, plus informal community groups running genuine community events relevant to migrant and multicultural communities.

Check you’re not already listed: Search Your Local Communities first – if an outdated listing exists, contact us to claim it rather than creating a duplicate.
Gather your materials: organisation details, contact person, a 50-word short description, a 250 – 500 word “About us”, your logo (square, 400×400px+), and your ABN if you have one.
Get authority: The person submitting should be authorised – a committee member, coordinator or staff member.
Complete the form at Register Your Community, in plain English.
Review: We verify contact details, check ABNs where provided, and may edit lightly for clarity. Usually within 5 business days.
Go live: Your page is published and you receive dashboard access to keep it updated and post events and news.

Submit early: at least 2 weeks before your event; earlier is better.
Prepare: essentials (date, time, venue, cost), 50-word summary, full description, who should attend, accessibility details, and an image (1200×628px recommended).
Complete the form: at Submit Your Event – registered groups can also post from their dashboard.
Review and publication: within 3 – 5 business days; you’ll be emailed either way.
After the event: send photos and a few lines – wrap-ups are welcome in Community News.

Front-load the important thing: “Free family festival, Saturday 12 July, Parramatta Park” beats a paragraph of history.
Write for a newcomer: Assume the reader arrived last month.
Say “free” if it’s free: it’s the most-used filter on the calendar.
Use a real photo: faces and colour outperform text-heavy flyers.
Include accessibility and language details deciding factors for many attendees.

Accuracy and completeness of dates, addresses and contacts
Plain, respectful, inclusive language
No discriminatory content – culturally specific events are welcome (“celebrating X culture” is inclusion; “X people only” generally is not, except where lawful, e.g. certain women-only services)
Genuine community purpose, not disguised advertising
Image rights: only upload images you may use, with consent from identifiable people

We'll tell you why and, wherever possible, what to change. You can revise and resubmit, or raise concerns via Feedback and Complaints.
