Yes the wordpress plugin is what I'm looking for.
No my products are not tickets at all, the event calendar would be for our town and the special events we have throughout the year.
Some of the events are for Easter (Easter egg hunt) Christmas (meeting Santa) . There is no ticket issued for these events and they are of course open to the public. We probably have 2 or three events per month that need to be publicized and most of the merchants have an event page on their own website so I wanted to include one in mine as well.
