What it does
The free The Events Calendar plugin covers the basics of publishing events, and this add-on builds on it for sites that need more. If you run regular classes, weekly meetups or a season of concerts, recurring event scheduling saves you from entering each date by hand. Visitors can browse events in month, list, day, week, photo, map and summary views, so you can pick the layout that suits your audience. The base The Events Calendar plugin must be active for the add-on to work.
The plugin fits nonprofits, schools, venues, businesses and community groups that publish events on their site. It handles in-person, online and hybrid events, with connections to Zoom, Microsoft Teams, Google Meet and WebEx, plus livestream embeds from YouTube or Facebook. Custom fields let you add the event details you need, and widgets and shortcodes place mini calendars or countdown timers around your pages. Developers can also customize the code to fit a site's design.
Best for
- Venues and organizers running recurring classes or shows
- Nonprofits, schools and community groups publishing event schedules

Questions about The Events Calendar PRO
Do I need the free The Events Calendar plugin as well?
Yes. This is an add-on that builds on the base The Events Calendar plugin, so that plugin needs to be active. The add-on then layers on recurring events, extra views, custom fields, virtual event tools and the other advanced features.
Can I schedule events that repeat every week or year?
Yes. Recurring event scheduling lets you create repeating events or a series from one entry, including rules such as yearly repeats. The calendar generates the individual dates, so you do not have to add each occurrence manually.
Does it work for online events?
It does. You can link events to Zoom, Microsoft Teams, Google Meet or WebEx and embed livestreams from YouTube or Facebook on the event page. This makes it suitable for fully virtual events as well as hybrid ones.
Can I use it with Elementor?
Yes. The plugin includes Elementor widget compatibility, so you can add event calendars and countdowns to pages you build in Elementor and adjust them within the editor alongside the rest of your layout.
