Venue & directions

Countdown & reminders

Event QR codes: the complete guide
QR codes have become the backbone of modern event operations. They eliminate the friction of paper tickets, printed programmes, and typed-out Wi-Fi passwords — replacing all of them with a single scan from any smartphone.
iCal QR codes vs. URL QR codes for events
An iCal QR code encodes the event title, start time, end time, location, and description directly into the QR code. When a guest scans it, their phone calendar app opens and pre-populates all the details — one tap to save. This works entirely offline, which makes it reliable for printed invitations and mailed-out save-the-dates.
A URL QR code links to your registration page, Eventbrite listing, or event microsite. It requires an internet connection to resolve but lets you update the destination without reprinting — ideal for signage at recurring events.
Best practices for event QR codes
- Test on multiple devices before printing at scale
- Add clear CTA text — "Scan to add to calendar" or "Scan to RSVP"
- Use high error correction (H level) if adding your logo
- Print at minimum 1.5 × 1.5 inches; larger for signage viewed from a distance
- Use dynamic QR codes for event-day updates like room changes
- Track scans to measure your promotional reach
