No matter where you live on this planet:

Always visit the website of entertainers or the shows they are on if you are interested in seeing them as they usually list their appearances. Or follow them on Twitter. Some soap and reality sites will also list appearances. Ticketmaster and other tickets sites will also list shows, and you can sign up for weekly emails, but these are ticketholder events. Most local newspapers have an Events section for their areas as well. Try bookstores as well for celebrity signings.

For shows and concerts try these:
