CSV to calendar (ICS) converter
Turn a spreadsheet of events into a calendar file you can import into Google Calendar, Outlook or Apple Calendar. Free, unlimited, nothing uploaded.
How do you turn a spreadsheet into calendar events?
To turn a spreadsheet of events into calendar entries, convert it to an .ics (iCalendar) file — Google Calendar, Outlook and Apple Calendar all import .ics, and none of them import CSV or Excel. StaysPrivate's CSV to ICS converter builds the file in your browser: you map which columns hold title, date, time and location, choose US, UK/EU or ISO date order, and check a preview of how each row was read before downloading. All-day events are supported and no event data is uploaded.
Frequently asked questions
What is an ICS file?
ICS (iCalendar) is the universal calendar format. Google Calendar, Outlook and Apple Calendar can all import one, which makes it the way to add many events at once instead of typing them in individually.
How do I import the file afterwards?
Google Calendar: Settings → Import & export → Import. Outlook: File → Open & Export → Import/Export → Import an iCalendar (.ics). Apple Calendar: File → Import.
Are my events uploaded anywhere?
No. The file is built entirely in your browser — schedules, client names and locations never touch a server.
Does it handle all-day events and time zones?
All-day events are supported — leave the time column empty or tick "all-day". Times are written in your device’s local time, which is what calendar apps expect when importing a plain schedule.
My dates are day/month/year — will that work?
Yes. Choose your date format (US, UK/EU or ISO) and the preview shows exactly how each row was understood before you download.
