Melissa,

A hashtag for the event is definitely the way to go. I personally think
it's great to show a feed of everyone who's using the event hashtag (not
only your own tweets). This is the purpose of Twitter - to enable
conversations between people. This is good for your Twitter account, too,
because it will increase engagement with your account and gain you new
followers. The widget is also an added incentive for other people to use
the hashtag.
