Similar to artist gigography and calendar, metro area calendar API also requires the metro area's ID. Usually artists do not have more than 50 upcoming events so I did not used the function for upcoming event search. Since the maximum return per page is 50 entries and most artists had toured more than 50 places in the past, I used functions to get the total past concerts and total page I needed for the artists and stored them in a list to add markers to the map.

Then I used the artist ID and the gigography API to get the past tour locations of the artist.

Calendars: Artist's calendar, Metro area's calendarįirst, I used Artist-search API to get the ID of the musician or band input by user.

Search: Artist search, Venue search, Location and metro area search.

This project made extensive uses of Songkick APIs, the APIs used are listed below Users can also search for upcoming events by city, and locate the venue on the map. There is also a 'clear search' button at the end of the sidebar to reset the search and start again. A dismissable alert will pop up if no entry is returned from the user input. Each event is plotted as a circle marker on the map, and shows location and date when mouse hovers on the marker. The app is able to map out the past tour locations, the upcoming events, as well as the route of the upcoming tour in animation.

The app has a side bar on the left and a map on the right. This interactive web application is a handy tool for users to search for the tour history and upcoming events of the artists they are interested in.
