You can now add a `location` and a `description` to an event. The location is a mono-line text field (supports auto-linking) which will be displayed with a location pin icon: ![Screenshot 2025-06-25 at 10.21.39](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/meta/original/4X/d/c/a/dca2ec1680697372984560e0463234c5507382d3.png) ![Screenshot 2025-06-25 at 10.23.21](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/meta/original/4X/f/e/2/fe23e424b9d7be83ac02be48ed802d30c92233b6.png) The description is a multiline text field (supports auto-linking + line breaks) which will be displayed at the end of the event with no icon: ![Screenshot 2025-06-25 at 10.21.44](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/meta/original/4X/d/e/b/deb8ae41631d756cd8678a7174cf15340747b703.png) ![Screenshot 2025-06-25 at 10.28.53](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/meta/original/4X/d/3/9/d3925fba5ff9bd9f667cd94ea207d28dbfadf697.png) Info: - The URL field will still be shown if you had it set, but is not available in the UI for new events. - The description is saved a the block content of the event in the markdown. - Relevant commit: [FEATURE: Add event location/description and "My Events" filter (#746) · discourse/discourse-calendar@bdf8869 · GitHub](https://github.com/discourse/discourse-calendar/commit/bdf8869a0186264148ad95a2659fd863400db9e3) --- _[View the full topic](https://meta.discourse.org/t/event-location-description/371606)._
