Sugar Calendar – Events Calendar, Event Tickets, and Events Management Platform

This is an incredibly solid plugin to use as a base, if you're familiar with php and css. I've tried several others, and this one is better than all the others I've tried!

Excellent work!


I was just looking for a simple calendar to display a short events list inside a sidebar and a calendar on a single page. This plugin accomplishes this exactly as expected and, unlike the other many calendar plugins, this one provides two blocks which include the events list and also the calendar optically into the themes look.


Finally a really simple calendar plugin

Easily manage events and sell tickets on your WordPress site. Sugar Calendar is easy-to-use, reliable, and exceptionally powerful. See for yourself.
