Google Calendar / Getting Started with Google Calendar

Create events

TRY IT OUT

You can create an event by clicking in the calendar where the event should be entered, or using the New button near the top-left corner of the calendar screen.

Clicking anywhere in the calendar will create an hour-long event starting at the time you clicked - you will be prompted for a subject for the event. 

You can add guests for the meeting, a room and a description, and can set the start and end date and time. Click on Save to save the appointment or on More Options to add further options to the appointment e.g. your status during the meeting time and whether the event should be marked as private. 

After clicking on More Options:

  • Set a reminder using the Email and Notification drop-down lists, or click on the X next to each reminder to remove it

  • Set how your time should show to other people – as Available or Busy

  • Set the Privacy for the appointment - public or private

  • Set the location of the meeting by typing an address in the Add Location box. Once the appointment has been created, you will be able to click on the address to view it in Google Maps. 

  • Click on the Save button near the top of the event when all details have been added
