Stay visible all year.

An affordable annual marketing membership for local businesses.

Your business deserves more than a fleeting mention. AccessPass gives you a consistent presence throughout the Happenings Media network all year long, putting your brand in front of a local audience that turns to us for where to go, what to do and what to buy.

Instead of starting from scratch every time you have something to promote, losing momentum between disconnected campaigns, AccessPass keeps your business top-of-mind through year-round digital advertising, seasonal content opportunities, social media exposure and member-only benefits.

It’s a simpler way to stay part of the local conversation all year long.

Starting at just $1.70 per day, a local business can maintain an ongoing presence with Happenings for an entire year instead of buying advertising one piece at a time.

AccessPass makes sense for your business if…

  • You want to stay visible locally throughout the year. Your business doesn’t need one big campaign. It needs people to remember you when they’re ready to buy.

  • You regularly have things to promote. Events, seasonal services, announcements, specials, new offerings or simply your business itself.

  • You want access to a strong local audience without starting over every month. Your membership gives you recurring opportunities throughout the year.

  • You want an affordable starting point. AccessPass begins at $624 for the year.

Need a one-time promotion instead? Our à la carte advertising may be a better fit. Looking for hands-on strategy and custom creative? Explore Creative Studio.
