Thanks for the helpful tips, Melanie!
I was giving this some thought myself and one of the first things that popped into my head was try reaching out to your local community to partner on the event. I've been in a lot of restaurants where they'll have flyers and such posted in the entryway, for example. It could be as simple as that. Depending on the scale of the event, there could even be some quid pro quo by having them participate in the event in some fashion for the free advertising in their establishment.
And I think as an extension of your point about promoting it on social media, if you're friendly with anyone with a large internet presence, it wouldn't hurt to see if they believe in what you're doing and might be willing to promote the event through their platforms. Influencers can have a huge effect on building interest for things!

My thoughts, implement contests or sweepstakes. Conduct social media competitions or sweepstakes where individuals have the chance to win complimentary tickets or exclusive merchandise by promoting your event or interacting with your posts.
Utilize Web Directories. Add your event to online event directories and local event calendars. Several of these websites provide free listings and can enhance the exposure of your event.
