Python Forum

Im trying to use the eventful api to get information about music events (concerts) between two dates. For example I want to get the below information about each concert from 20171012 to 20171013:

- city
- performer
- country
- genre
- title
- image
- StarTime

Im using a python example available online and change it to get the data above. But for now its not working Im just able to get this information:

{'latitude': '40.4',
'longitude': '-3.68333',
'start_time': '2017-10-12 20:00:00',
'city_name': 'Madrid', 'title': 'Kim Waters & Maysa Smooth en Hot Jazz Festival'}

But the performer, genre country and image its not working. Do you know how to get that information? When I change the python example below to get this information it returns always a empty array.

python example working: (However, without getting the performer, genre, country and image url, because if i add these I got an empty array)
