What it does
Some events depend on the moon. A full moon yoga session, a stargazing night or a workshop about lunar cycles all make more sense when attendees can see what the moon will be doing on that date. Without a tool for this, organizers end up looking up phases by hand and typing them into event descriptions. This add-on handles that inside EventON, placing moon information directly on each event card so the details sit next to the date and time.
The moon phases are calculated internally, so there is no external API or outside service to configure. You turn on the moon data section through the regular EventON settings, and it shows phases such as New Moon, Full Moon, First Quarter and Last Quarter, along with illumination and moon age. Fonts, colors and styles are adjusted in the EventON Appearance settings, which lets the moon section match the rest of your calendar design. The moon data text also supports language translations.
Best for
- Yoga studios and wellness retreats running moon-timed events
- Astronomy clubs and stargazing workshop organizers
- Photographers and educators planning sessions around lunar phases
