How to perform an advanced calendar search in Google Calendar
Ever need to check or edit an event - but can’t quite remember when it’s happening (or when it happened)? Don’t worry - Google Calendar’s advanced search can help you find any event, past or future, in just a few seconds.
Here’s how to use it:
-
Go to the Calendar homepage.
-
Click the magnifying glass icon in the top right-hand corner to open the search bar.
-
Click the drop-down arrow in the search bar to reveal the advanced search filters.
-
Enter any details you remember - such as:
-
Keywords from the event title or description
-
Location
-
Calendar (if you use multiple calendars)
-
Date range
-
-
Click Search, and your results will appear instantly.
💡 Pro Tip:
Use keyword-rich event titles (e.g., “Client Sync – Q2 Planning”) so they’re easier to find later with a quick search!
