I guess most of you use buzzd for this sort of thing, but we wanted to give you the heads up that there are other applications available free such as this one here. whaZZup for BlackBerry lets you know about all sorts of events going around you using your built-in GPS.

Features:

View events for a week for a month
Page navigation will be enabled if the events are more than 50
Shortcut keys help you save time to load screens
Change city option for browsing locations other the current one
Search for venues matching keywords
Add the event or venue to favorites
See the venue location using blackberry / google maps (if available)
Use your mobile’s gps to set your current location
See detailed description about the event, picture of the event
Search for similar category events
Know if the event is commercial or free with a facility to book your tickets on if ticket url is specificied
Known issues:
Events screen scrolling is a bit jumpy and I am currently working on to fix it. Nevertheless it is still usable.
GPS may not work in some cases on some CDMA devices due to carriers
