| search_events | Search for events near a location with optional filters. Every event returns a description: the organizer's own copy when the source published one, otherwise a factual summary generated from the listing (venue, local date and time, category, organizer, lineup). Also returns `lineup` (performers, headliner first), a catalog `rank` from 0-100, `predicted_end_time` when the listing omitted an end and a later source statement fills it, and `ticket_offer` when a verified price or availability is still fresh. Use this to help users find events in a city or near coordinates. |
