Create additional calendars

Rather than having all of your appointments in a single calendar, you can create additional calendars in Google so that you can group and categorise your appointments more easily. You could keep your main Google Calendar for work-related appointments, for example.

You can display as many calendars as required on one screen. The calendars will overlay each other so you can see all upcoming appointments in a single screen.

To create a new calendar:

The new calendar will be listed under My Calendars and will show on screen by default. 

You can display multiple calendars by clicking on each calendar you wish to show in the My Calendars list. Calendars with a coloured checkbox are currently displayed.

You can choose the colour in which a calendar displays by positioning the mouse over the calendar name and clicking on the ellipses. Choose the required colour from the options listed.

If you want to remove a calendar that's no longer needed, this can be done in one of two different ways.

If you don't want to remove the calendar permanently, you can hide it from your calendar list by positioning the mouse over the calendar, clicking on the ellipses and choosing Hide from list.
