How do I add an event calendar to my website without building one myself?

Last updated July 27, 2026

AddEvent gives you a fully hosted, customizable event calendar you can add to your website in minutes with a single copy-paste code snippet - no development required.

Step-by-step

  1. Sign up at addevent.com (free plan available)
  2. Create a calendar and add your events
  3. Go to Sharing on your calendar and click Embeddable Calendar
  4. Customize the design - colors, view (month/week/schedule), and which controls to show
  5. Copy the embed code
  6. Paste it into your website: in a Custom HTML block (WordPress, Squarespace, Wix, Webflow) or directly in your page HTML
That is it. The calendar appears on your site and updates automatically whenever you add or change events in AddEvent.

What you get without building anything

  • A responsive calendar widget in month, week, or schedule view
  • Add to Calendar buttons per event so visitors can save events to their personal calendars
  • A Follow Calendar button so visitors can subscribe and receive all future events automatically
  • Mobile-optimized layout out of the box
  • Your own branding (colors, design) on paid plans

Also available: events list widget

If a full calendar feels like too much for your use case, AddEvent also provides a lightweight events list widget - a scrollable upcoming events list with individual Add to Calendar buttons. Simpler, faster to load, ideal for homepages and sidebars.
