Events Widgets For Elementor And The Events Calendar

79 Quality Score
Active Installs
18/30

Around 10,000 active installs is a modest footprint, far smaller than the dominant The Events Calendar plugin at 700,000 installs, which limits how broadly its edge cases have been battle-tested.

Update Freshness
25/25

A last-updated date of mid-2026 and full marks on maintenance suggest the developer is actively iterating, with no signs of abandonment.

User Rating
14/15

A 90 out of 100 rating across 107 reviews is genuinely strong and indicates most users are satisfied with the output once installed.

Support Health
8/15

Zero support threads and zero resolutions in the public tracker is a yellow flag, since it either means the plugin is so simple that users rarely need help, or that the developer does not engage users in the WordPress.org support forum.

WP Compatibility
15/15

Full compatibility marks, WordPress 7.0 tested, PHP 7.2 minimum, and Elementor alignment point to a clean technical profile with modern environments.

What It Does

This plugin adds dedicated Elementor widgets for displaying events managed by The Events Calendar plugin, letting you output upcoming event lists with date, time, venue, and ticketing details inside any Elementor-built page. It focuses on presentation rather than event management, so the actual calendar system is handled by The Events Calendar core plugin or a compatible equivalent.

Who It's For

This is a good fit for site owners who already use The Events Calendar for event management and want to drop event listings, sliders, or ticket widgets into Elementor pages without writing shortcodes or custom templates. It works best for small to mid-sized event-driven sites such as community calendars, wedding planners, music venues, conference organizers, and nonprofit organizations that have standardized on Elementor as their page builder.

Who Should Skip It

If you are not using Elementor or are not running The Events Calendar as your events backend, this plugin offers nothing for you, since the widgets depend entirely on those two tools. Sites needing built-in ticketing, registration, or booking workflows should look at a fuller events platform like EventPrime or Event Booking Manager for WooCommerce instead.

The Bottom Line

With an overall score of 78.91 out of 100 and a strong 90 user rating, this is a useful but niche add-on that does one job well: rendering The Events Calendar data inside Elementor. The thin public support footprint and dependency on two other major plugins make it more of a convenience than a must-have. Recommended only for Elementor users already committed to The Events Calendar.
