What Is Events at UC Berkeley?

Events at UC Berkeley (events.berkeley.edu) is the university's official events calendar. It is a browsing and discovery site for campus happenings — academic lectures, sports, performing arts, films, exhibits, and other categories — rather than a ticketing or registration platform. It is useful if you want to see what is happening at UC Berkeley across departments and venues in one place, whether you are a student, staff member, or a member of the public.

What the site is for

The calendar aggregates events into a single listing so you do not have to check individual department pages one by one. The homepage presents two main ways to browse:

• Featured events — a highlighted selection
• All events — the full listing

Events are grouped under these categories:

Who it is aimed at

The site serves both audiences and organizers:

• Visitors — students, faculty, staff, and the general public looking for something to attend.
• Calendar managers — people who run departmental calendars. They can log in to create and edit events.
• Event submitters without a departmental calendar — they can submit an event for approval instead.

What to expect when you use it

• The site is a listing and discovery tool. The available page content describes browsing and event management, not purchasing tickets or paying fees.
• Managing events requires login. If you are only browsing, no account is described as necessary.
• Submitting an event without a departmental calendar goes through an approval step, so it is not published instantly.

When it is worth checking

Use events.berkeley.edu if you want a consolidated view of UC Berkeley campus events by category, or if you need to publish events for a department. If you are looking for a specific department's private schedule or a ticketing transaction, this calendar is a starting point rather than the final destination.
