To let people view the whole calendar, copy its public URL from Integrate calendar in Google Calendar settings.

To let people subscribe, copy the shareable link from Access permissions for events. Test it as someone in your audience.

Google Calendar event QR code questions

01

Does scanning add the event automatically?

Google Calendar opens a draft. The person who scans reviews it and chooses Save.

03

Will saved events update automatically?

No. Each saved event is a separate copy. Share changes with attendees if the event moves.

05

Which time zone should I choose?

Choose the zone where the event takes place or where it is scheduled. Preview the date and time before printing.

02

Do people need a Google account?

A Google account is needed to save the draft. If someone is signed out, they should sign in to Google Calendar and scan the code again.

04

Can I share a whole calendar?

Yes. Copy the public calendar URL or its shareable subscription link and use the website QR tool.

06

What if I already have an event link?

Test the share link with an attendee account and use the website QR tool.
