What is an ICS File?
An ICS file (iCalendar file) is a universal calendar format defined by RFC 5545. It's the standard way to share calendar events between different applications and platforms. When you receive a meeting invitation, export events from a calendar app, or download a schedule from a website, you're likely working with an ICS file.
ICS files contain structured event data including the event title, date and time, location, description, and organizer information. They're supported by virtually all calendar applications including Google Calendar, Apple Calendar, Microsoft Outlook, and many others.
Common sources of ICS files include conference schedules, sports fixtures, academic calendars, event ticketing platforms like Eventbrite, and subscription calendars for holidays or team schedules.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I add an ICS file to Google Calendar?
Simply upload your ICS file to this tool or paste the URL where it's hosted. We'll generate a Google Calendar link that, when clicked, opens Google Calendar with your event pre-filled. Just click "Save" to add it to your calendar.
Can I convert multiple events at once?
Yes! If your ICS file contains multiple events, we'll parse all of them and generate individual Google Calendar links for each event. You can then add the ones you want to your calendar.
Is my calendar data stored anywhere?
No. All processing happens directly in your browser using JavaScript. Your ICS file data never leaves your device and is not sent to any server. When you close or refresh the page, all data is cleared.
What calendar apps export ICS files?
Most calendar applications support ICS export, including Apple Calendar, Microsoft Outlook, Google Calendar, Thunderbird, and many web-based calendars. Event platforms like Eventbrite, Meetup, and Facebook Events also provide ICS downloads.
Does this work with Outlook or Apple Calendar ICS files?
Yes! ICS is a universal standard (RFC 5545), so files exported from any calendar application—including Microsoft Outlook, Apple Calendar, and others—will work with this tool.
Why isn't my ICS URL working?
The URL must point directly to a publicly accessible ICS file. Some URLs require authentication or redirect to a download page, which won't work. Try downloading the file first and uploading it directly instead.
