Best WordPress Calendar Plugins of2019

WordPress calendar plugins come in many styles and have features to suit an equally wide variety of needs. Some calendars offer complex booking or scheduling features, while others are simple event management calendars. 

Whatever your need, if you're looking for a premium calendar plugin, this list of the ten best WordPress calendar plugins for 2019 will help you decide which one is right for you. 

1. EventOn

EventOn

EventOn is one of the best-selling WordPress calendar plugins at CodeCanyon, and it's no wonder. The calendar’s default setting shows a small photo thumbnail with the event name, date, time, and location. When a viewer clicks on that info in the calendar, it opens up to display more details including an embedded Google map, social media share buttons, and buttons that allow you to add the event to Google calendar or your own calendar. Users can also add future events when they’re part of a series or recurring events, such as events that occur weekly or monthly. 

If you need even more customisation, there are a number of add-ons available that will allow users to add functions like events with a countdown timer, seating selections, and ability to review the event. There’s also a FullCal add-on that adds a clean, grid-based design to the calendar to display events in a traditional calendar format, and the appearance editor allows you to customise the look of the calendar to match your website style.

User alexsieff says:

"Very good program. I love the flexibility. You can buy the basic module, which works well, and gradually according to your needs, add add-ons. Good assistance."

Another great feature is the two-way synchronisation between Bookly Calendar and Google Calendar, which automatically reflects all updates you make in either calendar.  

You can add more advanced functions to your default configuration with a wide selection of Bookly add-ons available with your purchase.
