Facebook Events, also known as Facebook Calendar, works similarly to your iPhone Calendar, helping you keep track of social gatherings and business meetings. If you have important events saved on Facebook, such as a birthday party or a date, but you don't check Facebook often, you can add Facebook Events to iPhone Calendar so you can view and update them from your iPhone.
Here's a super simple way to add Facebook events to your iPhone calendar. These steps work on almost any iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch, even if you're using an older version of iOS like 14, 15, 16, 17, or the latest iOS 18.
1. Launch the Facebook app on your iPhone and log in your Facebook account.
2. Find "Settings" on the Home screen of your iOS device, then tap "Settings" > "Facebook" and follow the screen to sign in your Facebook account if you have not logged in.
3. Under the "ALLOW THESE APPS TO USE YOUR ACCOUNT" page, switch on the "Calendars".
4. Come back to your Home screen and launch the Calendar app, then tap the "Calendars" button at the bottom of screen. (iPhone Calendar Disappeared?)

It's actually pretty easy to get your Facebook events onto your iPhone calendar, even if you're using a Windows computer. Just follow these steps:
1. Open your web browser on your PC and go to the facebook.com. Log in to your account, then click on "Events" in the menu on the left side of the screen.
2. Look to the top-right corner of the Events page and click on the small gear icon. From the dropdown, choose "Export".
3. A small window will pop up showing two links, one for "Birthdays" and one for "Upcoming Events". Right-click on the one you want to sync and select "Copy link address".
Tip: In Firefox, this will say "Copy Link Location." In Internet Explorer, it's "Copy Shortcut."
4. Now, send that link to yourself via email so you can access it from your iPhone.
5. On your iPhone, open "Settings > Calendar > Accounts > Add Account", then tap "Other".
6. Under the "Calendars" section, select "Add Subscribed Calendar". Paste the link you emailed yourself into the "Server" field, then tap "Next" and finally "Save".
