Invite people to your Calendar event

You can add anyone with an email address to your event, even if they don't have Google Calendar.

Add people to your event

  1. On your computer, open Google Calendar.
  2. Click an event and then Edit event Edit.
  3. On the right, under "Guests," start typing the name of the person and choose someone from your contacts. You can also type an email address to invite people who aren't in your contacts list.
    • To mark a guest as optional, next to the guest’s name, click Mark optional People.
      • If the icon doesn’t show, hover over the guest's name.
  4. When you're done editing your event, click Save.

You can't add people to events that are automatically created from Gmail as well as birthdays, holidays, and events on sports calendars.

 

Give your guests updates on an event

Track responses to your event

When guests receive your invitation email, they can respond using the Yes, No, or Maybe links in the email. When a guest RSVPs to your event, you receive an email notification and your event updates.

To see who responded to your event, just click the event on your calendar. You’ll see who’s attending, RSVP status, and details.

Tip: In your settings, you can opt out of email notifications for RSVPs.
