Google has introduced a great functionality that allows you to restore calendar events after they were deleted. If you have accidentally deleted Google Calendar events, you can restore them from the Trash/Bin folder. Google keeps a record of your deleted calendar events from the last 30 days.

Depending on how many events you are trying to restore, the process may take a while so have patience and wait for the process to fully complete. Refresh your Google Calendar page once the restoration is finished.

Tips:

  • Keep in mind that Google only stores the last 30 days of deleted calendar events. If a calendar event was deleted more than a month ago, unfortunately, you will be unable to recover it.
  • Make sure you periodically back up your calendars by exporting them. Learn how to export Google Calendars by following the How to Export Google Calendar(s) article.
