New “local” section will surface Marketplace listings, Reels and posts from Facebook groups alongside event listings from your community.

Facebook will now provide personalized event recommendations in the form of a weekly and weekend digest that will be pushed to users via in-app notifications.

The changes are part of a broader effort by Meta to bring younger people back to its app with features tailored around how they use social media.
