become a medium to inform the time and place of the event being held to the
public. The development of this application aims to make it easier for admins to
provide event notifications to users through the android app. This application is
created using Java programming language and MySQL database. In addition
there is also the use of Google Maps Android API to display maps on the Android
application. This application can display a list of events that will take place where
in the event list there is information about the event such as the date, time and
place of the event and there is also a map location where the event will take place.
