About us
Pars Event is a calendar, not a magazine. Its job is to say what, where and when.
Dozens of cultural events happen in Iran every month — anniversaries, poetry nights, recitals, exhibitions — and most of them reach only the people who already knew. The information is scattered: a poster on Instagram, a notice on a provincial office's site, a word from a friend in Shiraz.
We gather them in one place and lay them out in the order of the year. That order matters: Iranian culture has a calendar, and once you can see the year you understand that Mehr is not Ordibehesht.
Each figure gets a house of their own. Hafez is not one page in a directory; the Divan, the tomb, the events and the tours sit together, and that place looks like nowhere else on this site. That is a design decision: three poets in one template become three database rows.

What we care about
Accuracy over volume
One event with the right date and address beats twenty copied listings.
The poetry untouched
A ghazal stays in Persian, in nastaliq. The English sits beneath it and never replaces it.
Accessibility
The site works from the keyboard, holds together at 200% zoom, and text over a photograph is always readable.
Stated sources
The Divan follows the Qazvini-Ghani recension, and every photograph carries its credit.
