Overview
What is an event QR code?
An event QR code contains a calendar entry in the standard iCalendar (VEVENT) format: title, start and end time, location and description. When guests scan it, iPhone and most Android phones offer to add the event to their calendar, so they get reminders and nobody writes down the wrong date.
The event data lives inside the code itself, so it works offline and never expires. Times are saved exactly as you enter them and shown in the guest’s own time zone setting, which is right for in-person events. For online events across time zones, write the time zone in the description or link to an event page instead.

How it works
How to create a QR code for a calendar event
Only the title and start time are required.
- 1
Enter the event details
Choose Event in the generator and fill in the title, start and end time, location and a short description.
- 2
Style the code
Match your invitation colors, add a calendar icon or logo, and use a frame like “Save the date”.
- 3
Download and test
Download PNG or SVG/PDF and scan once with an iPhone and an Android phone to check the event looks right.
Best practices
Tips for calendar codes
Keep the event QR code small and the details clear.
Keep the description short
Long descriptions make the pattern dense. Put details on a website and link to it in one short line.
Write a clear location
Use a full address so the calendar can offer directions with one tap.
Need to change details later?
Calendar data in the code cannot change. For events that may move, link a dynamic code to an event page instead.
Test on both platforms
Phones show calendar codes slightly differently. A quick scan on iPhone and Android avoids surprises at print time.
FAQ
Frequently asked questions
How do I create a QR code for a calendar event?
- Choose Event in the generator above, enter the title, times and location, and download your event QR code. Guests scan it to add the event to their calendar.
Does it work with Google Calendar and iPhone Calendar?
- Yes. iPhone offers “Add to Calendar” from the camera, and Android phones open Google Calendar or another calendar app through the camera or Google Lens.
How do I make a QR code for a Google Calendar event?
- Enter the same details here, or copy the event’s public link from Google Calendar and use the URL type. The event type adds a copy to each guest’s own calendar.
Can I make a code for Calendly?
- Yes. Copy your Calendly scheduling link and use the URL type. Scanners open your booking page and pick a time.
What time zone is used?
- The time is saved as entered and shown in the guest’s phone time zone. That is right for in-person events; for online events, mention the time zone in the description.
Can I change the event after printing?
- Not inside the code. For events that may change, link a dynamic code to an event page or calendar link that you can update.
Is the event QR code free?
- Yes. Calendar codes are free, with no watermark, no sign-up and no expiry.
Can I put an event QR code on tickets?
- Yes. An event QR code on printed or PDF tickets lets guests save the date while they wait. Keep it separate from any entry barcode so staff scan the right one at the door.
Can I add a reminder?
- Reminders are set by each guest’s calendar defaults. Most calendars add a reminder automatically when the event is saved.
Can I create recurring events?
- The code holds a single event. For a weekly meeting, link to a shared calendar or a page with all dates instead.
Why does my phone only show text?
- Some older scanner apps do not recognise calendar data. The built-in camera on recent iPhones and Android phones handles it.
Can I add the event to a wedding invitation?
- Yes. Download SVG or PDF for sharp printing, match the colors to your stationery and test before sending to the printer.
Can I track how many guests saved it?
- Calendar codes are static, so scans cannot be counted. For tracking, use a dynamic code that links to an event page.
