TikTok launched the Local Feed in February 2026 to help users discover nearby events and local updates.
Announced on February 11, 2026, the Local Feed became a location-oriented tab on TikTok’s home screen. It surfaces posts about nearby events, restaurants, shops, museums, travel, and services, along with content from local creators and small businesses.
The feed uses signals including a user’s location, the topic of a post, and when it was published. TikTok described it as a way to help people find what is happening in their community or get recommendations while visiting a new place. Precise location sharing and regional availability affect how the feature works.
It is easy to confuse the Local Feed with a general community or neighborhood tab. Its defining feature is location-based discovery: the content is selected to make nearby activities, businesses, and updates easier to find.
