Subreddit rules check

Can you promote here?
Promotion is allowed only with moderator permission (or inside designated threads). A short, honest modmail before posting costs two minutes and functions as a safe-conduct pass; skipping it is the most common avoidable removal.
From the rules · Rules text is missing/unclear — moderators should be asked before heavy self-promotion; community heavily favors clear local event listings with links.
Links
The rules clearly allow links. A plain-text mention still often outperforms a URL from a young account.
What this community rewards
Dominant post formats: data, news, showcase
Headline = short event-focused title (date range or "Free event - ..."); write in first/third-person brief announcement style with time/location/details and a link. Typical post = short title + 1–4 sentence body or event list. Tone: local, friendly, informational. Upvoted: timely, local, free/affordable events and clear details; avoid blatant unrelated advertising or spam.
Arriving in the local format matters: cross-posting the same text everywhere reads as tourist instantly. The wider method is in the Reddit playbook.
Classified mechanically from the community's published rules and recent top posts, last checked September 2026. Rules change and moderators have the final say: verify at r/abqevents's rules page before posting anything that matters.
Thread Otter checks this before every send
These profiles power the product: promo-banned communities never receive a promotional draft, drafts arrive in the local format, and a fact-check gate plus human pacing protect the account doing the talking.
