Add to Calendar Link Generator: one event, every calendar
An Add to Calendar link removes the small friction that makes people forget events. Instead of asking a reader to open their calendar, type a title, and copy a time, you give them one link that pre-fills everything. They click, confirm, and the event is saved. For webinars, launches, and invitations, that single click is the difference between a full room and a quiet one.
This generator builds those links for Google Calendar, Outlook.com, Office 365, Yahoo, and a downloadable ICS file that works with Apple Calendar and everything else. It runs entirely in your browser, needs no account, and stores nothing. Fill in the form above and the links are ready to paste into an email, a newsletter, or a button on your site.
Why 'just add it to your calendar' rarely works
Every calendar app encodes events differently. Google expects UTC timestamps in a query string, Outlook wants ISO 8601 in a deep link, Apple reads an ICS file with its own date rules. Hand-writing those URLs is fiddly and easy to get wrong, and a malformed link drops your attendee on an empty new-event screen with nothing filled in.
The time zone is where most links break. Encode a local time without the offset and someone in another country adds the event an hour, or several hours, off. This tool converts your event to UTC behind the scenes, so the link shows the correct local time for every recipient no matter where they open it.
How the calendar link generator works
1. Enter your event details
Add the title, date, start and end time, and pick the time zone the event happens in. Location and description are optional and flow into every link. Toggle all-day for events without a fixed time.
2. Generate links for any calendar
The moment your details are valid you get buttons for Google Calendar, Outlook.com, Office 365, Yahoo, and a downloadable ICS file for Apple Calendar. Each one opens a pre-filled new event.
3. Copy, share, or embed
Copy a single link, grab all of them at once, or copy ready-made HTML buttons to drop into your website or email campaign. Recipients add the event in one click, no account required.
When to use an add-to-calendar link
Webinar and event invitations where you want every registrant to actually show up. Marketing newsletters announcing a launch, sale, or live stream. Confirmation and reminder emails after a sign-up. Event landing pages where a calendar button sits next to the registration form. Anywhere a date matters and you would rather not rely on people remembering it.
Calendar link vs a meetergo booking page
A calendar link is perfect when the time is already fixed and you simply want people to save it. When you instead need people to pick a time, a meetergo booking page is the better tool: it shows your real availability, lets invitees choose a slot, then sends the calendar invite, reminders, and a video link automatically. Use the link generator to broadcast a set event, and a booking page to collect bookings.
