'''Calendar events''', or just events, are user posted [[calendar]] entries.
'''Calendar events''' are entries posted by forum members to the [[calendar]]. They can be linked to a specific [[topic]], or independent of a topic. They are different from holidays, which are generated from a holiday file, and from birthdays, which are generated from user profiles.<noinclude>
 
Unlike holidays, these are usually tied to a topic for the purpose of discussion, but as of SMF 1.1 they can be independent of any topic. They can often be helpful in coordinating real-world events in many situations, or reminding people of upcoming happenings.
 
Events can only be posted, seen, and modified when the calendar is [[Core Features#Calendar|enabled]]. The number of events you can have posted is limited to about 65,535 by default, but this limit can be raised.
