Performance Images In The Event Instances API

The event instances list endpoint now returns each performance's own main image alongside the parent event's artwork.

A performance can carry its own main image, a different photograph for a schools matinee or a relaxed performance, and that image is now available from the event instances list endpoint. Listings, calendars, and feeds built on the API can show the right picture for each date rather than repeating the same event artwork down the page.

What you get back

The image field on each performance now appears in the list response exactly as it does when you request a single performance. Nothing else about the response changes: field names, defaults, and pagination are the same, so existing integrations keep working and simply gain a field.

Where it applies

Anything built on the event instances list benefits, including custom calendars, third-party listings, and partner feeds. Where a performance has no image of its own, the event's artwork is still in the same response, so a sensible fallback is one step away.
