Facebook Events to Google Calendar

Hey, you can add your Facebook Events onto your Google Calendar. Here you are the steps for doing so.

1. Click on the "Events" link found in the left menu of your Facebook account.

2. On the top of the page you'll find a link called "Export Events". Click on it, and copy the URL that appears in the pop-up window.

3. Go to Google Calendar, and press on the "Add" button, found in the "Manage Calendars" box there. Then select "Add by URL".

4. Enter the URL you've just got from Facebook there, and click on the "Add" button.

5. Voila, here you go.

Try this script: Facebook to Google Calendar. It just need Greasemonkey installed on your Firefox browser.

But I think these steps are easier

II can't get it to display the full event details, it just shows the 'busy' information as though it was someone else's shared google calendar...

Surreal said...

easiest by far is fbCal! Automatic updating!

It mostly worked, with a couple of nice features: for instance events show up with a link to the facebook event page. However, several of the events only showed up as 'busy' (like tamlyn said) and those events don't have the link to the facebook page, and they don't have the correct ending times.

This almost works... all my Facebook Events are listed on Google Calendar eight hours earlier. :/

doesn't work for birthdays

Same problem with timezones, looks like google treats facebook events as GMT when it imports. So for me here in Boston, everything is 5 hours off.

Fantastic!

Tim Treacy said...

Is there a way to fix the problem with time zones? When imported or updated from faecbook, all of the times are listed as GMT, I live in the USA so this is not so helpful.

Dennis Chiuten said...

@Tim I'm having the same problem. Have you found a fix yet?

Is there anyway to get this to update - it seems to be static, Ideally I'd like this to birthdays as well. I can't get fbCal to work.

I've been running the Google calendar with Facebook events for over 6 months with out any problems, but for some reason the calender won't update with the latest events now, also starting to show events I haven't attended???

Anybody had a similar problem?

There doesn't seem to be a way to remove a single event once it's brought into your google calendar from FB! I've tried removing it from FB, but it doesn't sync with Google. You have to remove the entire Facebook calendar.

fail!

I won't be using this, waiting for something that just works right.
