The event calendar description is a feature that allows you to create a different, or more visually appealing description of an event that will appear on calendars and homepages. The calendar description option includes both a rich text editor and an image upload.

 

The RTF editor content appears in event hovers on the calendar, scheduling grid, and list pages.
