 * I am currently wanting to allow events being added to Events Manager, to be selected
   by a set location ie: town, Village, as opposed generic address. I will then 
   be able to show local towns with their events below. As opposed to now it shows
   towns as I’ve added them as an address, but also all the individual locations.
   I would like people to select their chosen town, and see events. At present if
   i add an event i can choose physical or url event. This is fine for displaying
   the events address, but i want also for a set location to be chosen.
 * Should I create a new Taxonomy called Town/Village and Create the 12 local towns
   and villages, and ensure 1 is selected when submitting an event and being created?
 * Your assistants is much appreciated

 * I’ve seen requests in the past for adding Location Categories and Locating Tags
   just like we currently have Event Categories and Event Tags. That way the event
   list could be filtered by location category or location town but that feature
   has not been added.
