Event Time Announcer

Set an event once, then share a link that shows everyone the time in their own zone.

How the Event Time Announcer works

Scheduling anything across borders — a webinar, a product launch, a game stream, a community call, a wedding livestream — runs into the same problem: “8 PM” means ten different things to ten different guests. The Event Time Announcer fixes the moment once. You enter the date, the time and the city whose clock you set it by; the tool pins that to a single absolute instant and packs it into a shareable link. When a guest opens the link, the page reads their device’s own time zone and shows them exactly when the event happens for them, complete with a live countdown and a table of the time in cities around the world. One-click Google Calendar and Outlook links and a downloadable .ics file let anyone save it to the correct absolute moment, and because every conversion uses the browser’s built-in IANA time zone data, the result stays correct through daylight-saving changes. Nothing is stored on a server — the entire event lives inside the link, so there is no account to make and nothing to expire. Planning a recurring call instead? The meeting planner scores work hours across up to eight cities.

Frequently asked questions

How does the shared link show the right local time?
You fix the moment once — a date, a time and the zone you set it in. The link carries that exact instant, and every person who opens it sees it converted to their own device’s time zone automatically. Nobody has to do the maths.
Do my guests need an account or an app?
No. The link opens in any browser and works on its own. There is no sign-up, nothing to install, and no data is stored on a server — the whole event lives inside the link.
Is the time correct across daylight saving changes?
Yes. Conversions use each visitor’s built-in IANA time zone database, so an event scheduled either side of a daylight-saving switch still lands on the correct local time everywhere.
Can people add it to their calendar?
Yes. The announcement page offers one-click Google Calendar and Outlook links plus a downloadable .ics file, each set to the correct absolute moment regardless of the guest’s zone.
