A subscription calendar lets you share many events with one link. People subscribe once, your future events appear in their calendar automatically, and when you change or cancel an event their calendar updates too. This guide covers creating your first calendar and sharing it.
When to use a subscription calendar
A calendar is the right choice when you have an ongoing series your audience should follow, for example:
A conference or event agenda
A webinar or class schedule
A season fixture list or community calendar
Company meetings and deadlines
For a single one-off event, you can share just that event instead. See Creating and sharing your first event.
Create your calendar
From your dashboard, click Create calendar (or New Calendar on the Calendars page).
Fill in the basics: a Calendar Name, a Description, a Calendar Color to identify it, and the default Timezone for its events.
Optionally set advanced details like Week Begins On, a Calendar Image, or a Calendar Template for branding.
Click Create Calendar. Your calendar gets a public page and link automatically.
You can change any of these later from the calendar's Settings tab.
Add events
A new calendar starts empty. Add events to it so subscribers have something to follow. See Creating and sharing your first event for how to create one.
Share your calendar
Once your calendar has events, share it so people can subscribe:
Public calendar page. Every calendar has an automatic landing page that lists upcoming events with subscribe buttons for all major calendar apps. Copy its link from the calendar page and share it by email, social media, or on your website.
QR code. On the calendar's management page, click Download QR Code to use on flyers, posters, or slides.
When someone subscribes, your calendar is added to their calendar app and stays in sync with your changes.
What's next
Once your first calendar is live, you can go further:
Add a button or link to your own site. See Add-to-calendar links.
See and export who follows your calendar. See Manage calendar subscribers.
Collect subscriber details before they subscribe, build custom forms, sync an external calendar, or view analytics. These are covered in the Calendar and Analytics collections.
