Create an event QR payload containing a title, start and end time, location, and short description. It is designed for invitations, meeting rooms, community events, classes, exhibitions, and printed programmes where attendees need consistent details.
Enter dates using the requested format and make the timezone clear in your printed material. Calendar app support for raw event payloads differs by device, so test it on the calendar apps used by your audience. For complex recurring events, use a proper calendar subscription or event page instead.
How to use this tool
- Enter the event title, dates, and venue.
- Add a concise description and generate the code.
- Test the event details on a supported phone before sharing.
Practical guidance
Event details are most useful when the title, local start/end times, and venue are unambiguous. This QR payload provides an event-style calendar record, but calendar applications do not all import the same format or timezone conventions. For a high-attendance event, also give guests a tested web page or calendar invitation as a backup.
Checks before you use the output
Compare the displayed start and end time to your official event schedule and test on the calendar apps your participants use. Avoid putting confidential meeting details into a public code. If the venue or schedule changes after printing, a static event QR cannot be edited, so a link to a maintained event page is safer for flexible plans.
Questions and answers
Will every phone add the event to its calendar?
Not all camera apps recognise event payloads the same way. Test the workflow with your audience’s devices.
Can I encode recurring events?
This tool is intended for one event occurrence. Use a calendar invitation or subscription for recurring schedules.
Will every calendar app import the event?
No. Calendar import support varies by device and app. Test the generated code with your audience’s likely calendar apps and provide a backup event link when timing matters.
