Time zones and calendars

How times show up for everyone, and how the calendar links work.

Time zones

  • Set the time zone when you create the sheet.
  • The public page shows times in the event's time zone.
  • Around a daylight saving change, people in other regions may see a time shift by an hour.

Add to calendar

  • Everyone who signs up gets a Google Calendar link and an .ics file with their confirmation.
  • Calendar files are written in UTC, and each calendar app shows them in local time.

Tip: if your event falls near a daylight saving change, put the local time in the description too.
