QR Code for an event

On invitations, posters and tickets: whoever scans finds the event ready to save to their calendar, with place and times already filled in. You can engrave date and place in the image, and the code works with no connection and no account. Or show them from a page, behind one of our links: if the room or the time changes you fix it there, and the posters already up are still good.

Static· works offline, the content lives inside the code

Step 1:Content

The QR code opens a page with the poster, the venue, a countdown and a button to save the date: the room can change even after the flyers are printed. Requires a free account. Switched off, the event goes inside the image: it saves to the calendar with no network, but it never moves again.

Step 2: Customise the look

Enter up to three colours, for example your brand’s. Each proposal places them on modules, markers, background and frame, and always clears the contrast a scanner needs.

How it works

An event QR code holds title, venue, date and time in the format calendars recognise. Whoever scans it sees an offer to add the event to their calendar, with everything filled in. The data is engraved in the code, which is static and works without an account.

With the “Page” switch the event becomes a web page with poster, countdown and the file to save to the calendar: the code becomes dynamic, points to the page, and the date can be corrected after printing.

When to use it

Invitations, posters, tickets, billboards, printed newsletters, signs in shop windows: whenever you want a date to end up in the reader’s calendar rather than on a slip of paper that gets lost.

For events that might change time or venue, the page version avoids reprinting: whoever already has the material finds the updated information.

Before you print

Check the time zone and the date before generating the static code: they are engraved in the image and cannot be corrected afterwards. A short title and the venue with its full address help the calendar show the map.

If you print weeks before the event, use the page: the code stays valid even if the programme changes, and the countdown says how long is left.

Frequently asked questions

Does this QR code work without an internet connection?
Yes. The information sits inside the code itself, so the phone reads it offline. The trade-off is that the content cannot be changed once printed.
Do QR codes expire or stop working?
No, the codes you generate never expire. If the owner deactivates a dynamic QR code, anyone scanning it sees a notice page instead of the destination.
