Make sure invitations aren't forgotten

An event QR code on wedding invitations, conference posters, seminar flyers or meeting announcements lets attendees add the event to their phone calendar with one tap, so dates aren't forgotten and reminders work automatically.

Information you can add

  • Event title
  • Start and end date and time, or all-day
  • Location, link and description
  • A reminder 15 minutes, 1 hour or 1 day before

Compatibility

The QR code uses the standard iCalendar (VEVENT) format. When a phone camera or QR reader recognises it, it offers to add the event to the calendar. The code is generated in your browser.

How to use Calendar Event QR Code Generator

  1. Enter the event title, date and time.
  2. Add the location, link and description.
  3. Test the QR code with your phone.
  4. Download the code and add it to your invitation or poster.

Why use this tool?

Increases attendance and saves guests from typing event details into their calendars.

FAQ

Do all phones support event QR codes?

Most Android phones and QR reader apps do. Some iPhone camera versions show the text without offering to add it; sharing an ICS file is an alternative.

Will attendees in other countries see the right time?

Yes. The time you enter is converted from your device's time zone to UTC, so every calendar app shows the event in the attendee's local time.

Can I create an .ics file?

Yes, the ICS Calendar Event Generator creates a downloadable calendar file.
