Add a room to a Google Calendar event

You can add meeting rooms and other resources, like projectors, to your event.

Add a room on your computer

    • Important: If you can't add a room to an event, Google Calendar may suggest a shortcut to create a duplicate event where you can book a room. This shortcut creates a single event, without any guests.
  5. Click Save.
Tip: Account administrators can add new rooms and resources for users to book by using the Admin console.

A room declined my event

  • Recurring events: Make sure the room's available for at least two-thirds of the events, and isn't unavailable more than 5 times.
  • Single events: Ask your administrator to change the sharing options for the room to "See all event details," or to give you permission to book the room.
  • Tip: For some work or school accounts, if your room's declined, your admin can turn on a setting to automatically book a similar room. For events with fewer than 20 guests, the organizer and guests will be emailed new room details. For more than 20 guests, only the organizer and the event creator will be emailed.
