An iCalendar QR code is a QR code that encodes a calendar event, including a vEvent block with title, start time, end time, location and description. Scan it with any phone camera and the calendar app opens with the event pre-filled for one-tap saving to Apple Calendar, Google Calendar, Microsoft Outlook or Thunderbird. The vEvent format is defined by the open IETF RFC 5545 standard, so these codes work across major calendar apps worldwide. No app installation, no manual typing and no broken share links after printing.
Add your logo, brand colours and AI-generated designs so the code matches your wedding invitation stationery, conference programme layout, classroom syllabus, webinar landing page, service sheet, sports poster, concert flyer, exhibition stand signage, appointment card or training welcome email. Print it on save-the-dates, conference programmes, term syllabuses, webinar landing pages, service sheets, season schedules, tour flyers, stand signage, appointment cards or training packs. iCalendar QR codes encode the vEvent text directly into the pixel pattern, so the event details remain fixed once printed and work offline with any phone camera worldwide.
Enter the event title, start, end, location and description, style the code with your logo and AI-generated designs, then download it in PNG, SVG or PDF for invitations, conference programmes, syllabuses or service sheets.
Add the event title, start and end times with a clear time zone (DTSTART;TZID=America/New_York), location and description. For multi-event programmes, include several VEVENT blocks in one ICS payload. Use RRULE for recurring meetings or weekly classes.
Add your logo, brand colours and pixel patterns. Choose from 1200+ templates or generate QR Art to match your wedding invitation stationery, conference programme, classroom syllabus or service-sheet style.
Export in PNG for digital use, SVG for print or PDF for layered design files. Print on save-the-dates, conference programmes, term syllabuses, webinar landing pages, service sheets or training packs. Test with Apple Calendar and Google Calendar before full production.
Encode any RFC 5545 vEvent payload into a one-scan calendar entry, add your logo and AI-generated designs, then share print-ready exports across save-the-dates, conference programmes, syllabuses or service sheets.
Static iCalendar QR codes do not include Analytics by design. Every website URL, Instagram or Landing Pages QR in your library can track scans, devices and locations in real time.

Wrap a hosted ICS landing page in a custom short link with UTM parameters for cleaner campaign attribution. Test placements across save-the-dates, conference programmes or webinar landing pages, then retire them safely when the season ends.
Shorten event links
Add your logo, brand colours and AI-generated designs to every event code. Choose from 1200+ templates for wedding planners, conference organisers, teachers, webinar hosts, faith groups or sports clubs.
Customise your event QR
An iCalendar QR adds the event date to the attendee’s calendar, while a Google Forms QR collects registrations before the event. Use both on webinar landing pages or email confirmations for a register-and-save flow.
Open the registration form
An iCalendar QR saves the event date to the calendar, while an email QR opens a pre-filled message window for follow-up questions. Use both on event invitations or RSVP cards.
Capture email sign-ups
An iCalendar QR adds the event date to the calendar, while a PDF QR opens the conference programme, syllabus or venue map for full details. Use both on save-the-dates and conference badges.
Open the programme PDF
An iCalendar QR adds the event to attendees’ calendars, while a vCard QR saves the organiser’s contact details to the address book. Use both on save-the-dates or conference badges for a save-and-connect flow.
Save contact details
An iCalendar QR encodes a shareable RFC 5545 vEvent payload for offline use, while a URL QR sends people to any external destination, including a hosted ICS landing page or webinar lobby. Use both on event landing pages.
Open any web page
An iCalendar QR saves the event date to the calendar, while a location QR opens the venue address in Apple Maps or Google Maps for turn-by-turn directions. Use both on wedding invitations and conference programmes.

Enter the event title, start and end times with the time zone, location and description in QR Code AI. The generated QR code encodes a vEvent block based on RFC 5545. You can then add your logo, brand colours and AI-generated designs to match an invitation, programme or syllabus. Export it in PNG, SVG or PDF for sharing or print.
QR codes encoded to RFC 5545 work with major calendar apps including Apple Calendar, Google Calendar, Microsoft Outlook, Samsung Calendar, Yahoo Calendar and Thunderbird. A phone camera scans the code, decodes the vEvent payload and opens the default calendar app with the event details already filled in, ready to save in one tap.
Yes. iCalendar event QR codes are free on QR Code AI. You can generate them, customise them with your logo, brand colours and AI-designed templates, then download them in PNG, SVG or PDF without watermarks. Because the event data is encoded directly into the QR pattern, the printed code keeps working offline on compatible phone cameras without needing a hosted page.
Use DTSTART;TZID=America/New_York syntax with a clear time zone identifier as defined in RFC 5545. The calendar app then converts the event to the scanner’s local time. For events spanning multiple regions, such as global webinars, include the reference time zone in the description so attendees can confirm they are saving the correct local time.
An iCalendar QR encodes an RFC 5545 vEvent block directly into the pixel pattern, so the calendar app opens with the event ready to save, even offline. Extra calendar properties such as images and colour are described in RFC 7986, while scheduling methods such as INVITE and REPLY are covered in RFC 5546. A Google Forms QR opens an online registration form for attendee details such as name, email or dietary requirements.
