Calendar criteria

Submission does not automatically add an event to the Blue September calendar. To be included, an event must specifically provide information about or support prostate cancer.

Events that meet these criteria and take place outside Blue September will also be considered.

Blue September is a global awareness campaign that brings people together to raise the profile of prostate cancer and to encourage early testing and open conversations about men's health. Originating in Australia and New Zealand, the campaign has grown to span the United Kingdom, the Republic of Ireland, the United States and other nations, uniting community groups, health professionals and supporters under a shared colour. The deep navy and warm orange palette used across this site reflects that identity, presenting clear information in a calm, professional style suited to a serious health topic.

Submitting an event to Blue September is a straightforward way for organisations, fundraisers and community groups to connect with the wider campaign calendar. Each entry is reviewed against the calendar criteria, which require that an event provides information about, or actively supports, prostate cancer. Meeting these criteria opens the possibility of inclusion even when the event takes place outside the official Blue September period, allowing awareness work to be recognised wherever it happens throughout the year.

Because a submission on its own does not guarantee calendar placement, organisers should provide complete and accurate details when registering an event. Descriptions that explain the prostate cancer connection, along with clear information about what the event involves, help reviewers confirm eligibility and help participants understand what to expect. The event calendar serves as a practical guide for people searching for awareness activities, fundraising challenges and community gatherings, making it a valuable route for aligning local initiatives with an international campaign.
