A calendar event QR code saves people from copying your date and time by hand. They scan it, and their phone offers to add the event, already filled in with the title, time and place. It is ideal for invitations, posters and event pages. Here is how to make one.
TL;DR Open the calendar event QR code generator, add a title and start time plus any optional details, then download a PNG or SVG. Scanning adds the event to the person’s calendar.
What to include
A title and a start time are all you strictly need. Add an end time so the event blocks the right slot, a location so people can find it, and a short description for anything else they should know, such as a dress code or a parking note.
Write the title the way you want it to read in someone’s calendar. “Team offsite, Room 4” is clearer at a glance than “Offsite.”
Mind the time zone
The event uses the clock time you enter as local time. For a single-city event that is exactly right. If you expect people in other time zones, add the zone to the title or description so nobody shows up an hour off.
Where to use it
Event codes work on printed invitations, flyers, posters, slides and confirmation pages. Put a caption next to the code, such as “Scan to add to your calendar,” so people know what the code does.
Keep it scannable
You can style the code with colors and a small logo, as long as you keep strong contrast. Test the styled version on a phone before printing a batch.
