Event QR code generator
An event QR code puts your event straight into a guest's calendar. One scan, and their phone offers to save the title, date, time, and location — no typing, no forgotten RSVPs. Fill in the details below and download a print-ready code in seconds. Free, no account, never expires.
Style
Sample preview — fill the form to generate yours
01
Enter your event details
Type the event title, then set the start and end date and time. Add the location and an optional description. Times are encoded exactly as you enter them — local time for the venue.
02
Style it if you like
Colors, rounded dots, and a logo are free. Keep the code darker than the background — scanners read contrast, and posters get viewed from across rooms.
03
Download and place it
SVG scales cleanly to poster size. PNG up to 4096px works for invites and badges. Put it where people pause: the bottom of the invite, the corner of the poster, the back of the badge.
Worth knowing
Times mean venue time
The code stores times as entered, without a timezone. Scanning phones treat them as local. For a single-venue event that's exactly right. For a webinar with attendees in three timezones, state the timezone in the description.
Test it on a real phone
Scan the code yourself and confirm the calendar entry looks right — title, date, time, location. Thirty seconds now beats a misprinted run of 500 invitations.
Put the details in print too
The code is a shortcut, not a replacement. Print the date and venue next to it so the poster still works for people who don't scan.
If your link will change
An event code encodes the details directly, so a changed date means a new code. If your posters are already up, a dynamic QR code helps: it points to a short link you can re-aim at an updated event page anytime, and shows scans by day, country, and device. Two are free. And per the Qranite policy, the link keeps redirecting even if you stop paying.
About dynamic codesCommon questions
Does an event QR code expire?
Not here. The code contains the event details directly in VCALENDAR format — nothing depends on our servers. It scans the same the day after your event as the day you made it.
Do guests need an app to scan it?
No. The built-in camera on iPhone and Android reads the code and offers to add the event to the default calendar — Apple Calendar, Google Calendar, or whatever the phone uses.
What event details can the code include?
Title, start and end date and time, location, and a description. That covers posters, invitations, and conference badges. Phones fill all of it into the calendar entry on scan.
What if the event date changes after printing?
The details live inside the code, so a static code needs reprinting. If reprinting isn't practical, use a dynamic code that links to an event page you can update after the posters go up.
How does the code handle timezones?
Times are encoded as you enter them, with no timezone attached. Phones read them as local time. Perfect for in-person events; for online events across timezones, name the timezone in the description.
