A public Google Calendar,
Musicville-Canada-calendar lists many events - send an email message to info@thepso.org if you need to add any event to it. Of course the Peterborough Wiki Events Board is a good place to list things too!.
In addition to those listed above, an automatically generated list of music groups is generated. Any listings there should probably also be added here.
