This game needs an ingame calendar + ingame description for events (one you can easy find)

Is it possible to add a normal calendar to the game with event data and description. Something easy to use and easy to find. May one which can use guilds for Raids too like WoW has.
There is an event describtion in the help section, but srsly who looks there? And the german event description is wrong or I have really bad luck for those event tickets. (Do trolls and the big lizzards count for tickets and boxes or not? german description says: bigger than normal monster) Or maybe just me and if: RNG s.cks...

✭✭✭✭✭Other MMORPGs have this. I don't understand why this game doesn't. Official in-game events should be as transparent as possible. One tactic employed by monetization designers in games is to confuse the customer to increase the chance they will get frustrated and simply pay to win various rewards. This shady tactic probably isn't why we lack an in-game events calendar, but as time goes by it starts looking a bit more like the reason considering it isn't that hard to implement. We already have the daily log-in rewards calendar. It would just be an extension of that system, yes?3 -

✭✭✭✭✭Even though it would likely be easy to add from a programming standpoint, @Valagash ... ZOS doesn’t know the actual Event dates long enough ahead of time to make the calendar useful.
Recall, for example, the recent announcement for the Midyear Mayhem Event was less than a day before the Event started in-game.1 -

As long as it's not implemented yet, I'd suggest this one:

Be sure you’re reading the OP, @JumpmanLane. As they’re looking for a calendar of Events and not a daily calendar.
@BenevolentBowd is only as good as the Event dates that ZOS publishes ... which we’ve seen ZOS send very late recently.

As with the rest of my site, I created an ESO calendar to track as many events as I could and shared it with the community.
You can find the main ESO calendar below
http://benevolentbowd.ca/calendar/
Notes:- There are 10 different zones views of the same calendar from East Coast of Australia to the West Coast of North America.
- It is made of several different calendars so they can be filtered as desired (Events / Server Maintenance, Pledges, Luxury Vendor, Twitch Drops, etc.
- The calendars are created and maintained in Google Calendar and can be imported into any google calendar and some digital assistants like google assistant, alexa, etc.)
- It is maintained manually so they are updated when I check various sources or when I overhear something from #ESOFam (guildies, streamers, other players, etc.). Not usually updated when I'm away from home or busy doing family stuff.
- When there is an event, I often create a placeholder event to occur annually to remind me in the future to watch for news.

This and an explanation of all buffs, debuffs and status effects, it's absurd that there is nothing explaining this stuff in-game .1 -

Thank you very much. My native language is german, so normally I look for german infos first. But it s a shame that players have to be to put such info together. I haven´t checked @BenevolentBowd complete site. Normally I do for weekly luxury furniture trader only

They add the clock, I think it was may/june 2014 into the map. If you open the map, there is the ingame clock
End btw. for all others who where confused about the ingame help section, every monster count. Got my tickets and box after grinding normal monsters. Had it in a tick. Tickets in a tick xDDDD love english
BUT still ingame calendar would be helpful!
Thanks for all the answers and help Cheers
