Posted this on Reddit a couple of weeks ago, and thought I should post it here as well, as it's something I'd really like to see in-game.

An in-game game calendar in ESO can help Guilds organize events such as trial/dungeon runs, pvp events etc. to their members. And of course can be used by Zenimax to communicate exact dates for Holiday Events, Anniversary Events, release dates, sales and special offers, etc. to the players.

The calendar could also have filters, allowing you to hide stuff you don't want to see (similar to the Chat window).

The calendar could include:

- Guild events (requires a certain rank with a Guild to create)
- Personal notes/alarms (share with people on your Friends list?)
- Holiday Events
- Anniversary Events (such as the Orsinium Two-Year Anniversary)
- Release dates (DLC/Chapters)
- Crafting Research
- Misc. Events (such as Free ESO Pluss Weekends, etc.)

    Love the idea.. it’ll be a lot easier doing Daedric Summonings with a proper calender.. and maybe a clock, too.

    I love the idea, would be great to get as part of a wider update for guilds as well but I wouldn't mind just a basic one to start with showing in game events, item releases etc.

    It’s definately a great suggestion.

    For Xbox one I’d ask that it works with the Xbox one LFG calendar we have outside of the game.

    This tool should be platform specific and different

    Game days don't line up to calendar/marketing days.

    So we'd have things like preparing for the Jester's Festival but it's Frost Fall in the game. It just won't work.

    Sure, a day in-game is about 5.3 hours or something. I never ment for this calendar to display in-game days either. Not sure what the point of that would be?

    This is very much needed. It would be much nicer than having to rely on *guild notes* for events.

    After the minimap is added. Don't give me none of that "immersion blowing" BS in a game with flaming camels, tin foil tattoos and shower shoes in combat.

    This is a great idea for an add-on.

    Can you imagine getting a tie in to crafting research also, you could see in advance when something was ready to pop.
