1. A computing device, comprising:
memory to store instructions; and
a processor coupled with the memory, the processor configured to process the instructions, that when executed, cause the processor to:
send, to one or more servers, data to identify a user of the computing device, the computing device, or both;
receive, from the one or more servers, one or more interactive event markers corresponding to one or more events for the user;
display, in a graphical user interface (GUI), an image of a portion of an area including an interactive event marker of the one or more interactive event markers overlaid onto the image at a location in the image where a corresponding event is to occur, the one or more interactive event markers are displayed on the GUI without moving the computing device, each interactive event marker in the one or more interactive event markers being indicative of a location of a corresponding event in the one or more events and a direction for moving the computing device to view information associated with the corresponding event in the one or more events, the information being viewable upon the computing device being moved to and detected at the location;
receive a selection of the interactive event marker;
display, in the GUI, information associated with the event corresponding with the interactive event marker; and
display, in the GUI, a second interactive event marker of the one or more interactive markers overlaid onto the image, the second interactive event marker displayed in the image at a second location to indicate to the user to move the computing device, wherein the second location is along an edge of the image indicating to the user to move the computing device in a direction corresponding to the edge.
