Seems you can easily change the color, but only to the color of an existing calendar.

(Am assuming you have more than one existing calendar)


To do that: ✽ double-click the event to open it in a small window

✽ click on the tiny up down (V) symbols at top right / beside small square of existing color


✽ choose the color of another existing calendar from the drop down list that opens

✽ click the small x at top left to close the small window

Thanks but I don't want to create another calendar just to change the color of a couple of events during the course of a week. I'm looking to change just one event that I'd like to highlight so it looks different to give it more attention.


This is a feature in Google Cal that's been there for many years. It's very helpful.


So it seems like this is something Apple Calendar does not allow. :(
