> The events your guests see in shou now display the real times for the day they pick, come soonest first, are better translated, cover far more of Brussels and point to the right venue. Plus: a "Report a problem" line on the printed guest card, and recommendation photos that fix themselves.

"What's on tonight?" is one of the questions guests ask most, and on every plan the AI concierge answers it from live local listings. On Advanced, the This week tab shows those events too. Over the last few weeks we've improved both the events themselves and the way guests see them.

**Pick a date, see that day's showtimes.** Films and shows often run for weeks, at different times each day and sometimes at several venues. When a guest opens an event, they now tap a date and see that day's real showtimes, venue and ticket link. If it plays at two cinemas that day, each gets its own line. The ticket button goes to a page where tickets can actually be bought, not a ticket shop that says "sold out" while the venue still has seats.

**Soonest first.** When a guest asks the concierge for concerts or exhibitions, they get the nearest ones, preferring the next two weeks, listed by date. Tomorrow's lunchtime concert comes before one in December, and every event still shows its walking time from your apartment.

**Also at this venue.** At the bottom of each event, guests see up to three more upcoming events at the same place, so a good cinema or concert hall is easy to come back to.

**Events in your guest's language.** Event descriptions are translated into all seven guest languages: English, French, Dutch, German, Spanish, Italian and Ukrainian. Sometimes a translation came back unchanged, so a guest who reads German still saw the French original. We now catch those, retranslate them, and never keep a copy that wasn't translated. Almost 5,000 descriptions were fixed this way. We also cleaned up stray formatting characters that showed up in tens of thousands of descriptions.

**The right venue, at the right distance.** A film or show can play at several venues on the same day. We used to fold those into one listing, so a guest could be told an event was nearby when the screening near them was at a cinema on the other side of town. Venues more than 1 km apart now get their own listing. "Nearby" means nearby again, and the address and ticket link match the venue.
