About DO812

Connecting southern Indiana through the events that matter — music, food, arts, community, and everything in between.

What We Do

DO812 is a free, community-driven platform that brings together the people, places, and experiences that make the 812 area code unique. We collect, curate, and surface local events so residents and visitors can easily discover what is happening near them.

Our services include:

  • A clean, searchable directory of approved events across southern Indiana
  • Free event submission for organisers, venues, artists, and community groups
  • Featured event placement and editorial highlighting
  • Proximity-based discovery so users can find activities near their ZIP code
  • Open Graph and social-ready event pages that look polished when shared
  • A growing network of regional news and community sites powered by the same technology

Everything is built and maintained by a small team based in southern Indiana who care about the independent music scene, local makers, food culture, and the everyday gatherings that strengthen communities.

The Team

DO812 is a product of Exhibi.tech — a southern Indiana company focused on practical digital tools for local communities.

Built in the 812, for the 812

We believe the best events are the ones that happen close to home. Whether you are an organiser looking to reach more people or a resident searching for something to do this weekend, DO812 exists to make local discovery simple and reliable.
