The development of social networks has not only improved the online experience, but also stimulated the advances in knowledge mining so as to assist people in planning their offline social events. Users can explore their favorite events, such as celebrations and symposiums, through the pictures and the posts from their friends on social networks. An effective event recommendation can offer great convenience for both event organizers and participants, which yet remains extremely challenging due to a wide range of practical concerns. In this paper we propose a novel recommendation framework, which combines the information from multiple sources and establishes a connection between the online knowledge and the event participation.
