You can share your calendar publicly so anyone can check it.
How public calendars work
When you make a calendar public, other people can:
- Find your public calendar on a website. If this website is searchable, people can find your calendar in search results.
- Sync your calendar with other applications.
- Subscribe to your public calendar and check it in Google Calendar.
When you make a calendar public, you can choose to let other people check all the event details or just when you're free or busy.
Make your calendar public
You can have multiple calendars and share them with different people. For example, you can have a public calendar you share with everyone, and a private calendar that only you can check.
Important: You can only edit Google Calendar sharing settings from a computer, not the mobile app.
- On your computer, open Google Calendar.
- At the top right, click Settings
Settings.
- On the left, under "Settings for my calendars," click the name of the calendar you want to share.
- Under "Access permissions for events," check the box next to "Make available to public."
- Click OK.
Tip: If you don't want other people to read the details of your events, select See only free/busy (hide details).
Google Workspace users: Your domain's administrator may restrict your sharing settings. If you can't find some sharing settings, contact your domain administrator.
Stop sharing your calendar publicly
Tip: This change usually only takes a few minutes, but may take up to 4 hours to take effect.
Share your public calendar
There are a few ways to share your public calendar:
Embed your calendar on a website
Share it with a certain person
You can share your calendar as a link to let others access your calendar in a web browser, Google Calendar, or another application.
- On your computer, open Google Calendar.
- At the top right, click Settings
- On the left side, under "Settings for my calendars," click the name of the calendar you want to share.
Add events to a public calendar
If you share multiple calendars with other people, you must select the correct calendar when you create a new event.
- Unless you change the setting, new events match the calendar's default settings. For example, if the default is set to “public,” anyone can find your new event.
- To override your calendar's default settings, change your event privacy settings.
