How PinItLiveIt Scores Events
PinItLiveIt uses deterministic scores to summarize selected characteristics of an event. Scores are calculated from structured event information and are bounded between 0 and 100.
World Event Score
The World Event Score is a composite score combining Event Appeal and Travel Score.
55% Event Appeal + 45% Travel Score
Event Appeal
Event Appeal is derived from the event category, destination, and whether the category is treated as having international appeal by the scoring model.
Travel Score
Travel Score starts from a base value and incorporates destination, international appeal, event duration, and travel-oriented event categories.
Base score: 50
Major destination: +8
International category: +8
Travel-oriented category: +8
Duration: +3, +5, or +8 depending on event length

What these scores do not represent
PinItLiveIt scores are not ticket-sales measurements, attendance figures, user ratings, review scores, or guarantees of event quality. They are calculated summaries of structured event characteristics used by PinItLiveIt.
Why we publish the methodology
The scoring methodology is published so users can understand what the numbers mean rather than treating them as an unexplained rating.
