Sugar Event Calendar is a sweet, simple event calendar plugin for WordPress.
Most event calendar plugins are either way too simple, or extremely overly complex and bloated. Sugar Event Calendar is designed to be simple, light weight, and provide just the major features you need for event management.

Basic Usage
Once you have created your events, you can display a calendar, as shown in the demo, using the following short code:
[sc_events_calendar]
If you would like to show a calendar of only events from a particular category, then do this:
[sc_events_calendar category="category-name"]
And if you would like to show events from more than one category, but not all, do this:
[sc_events_calendar category="category-name, second-category"]
You will also find several new Event widgets in your Appearance > Widgets page.
Along with the calendar views, Sugar Event Calendar also has an events archive that shows the events in the order they occur and in the same styling / layout as your current WordPress theme. The archive is located at http://yoursite.com/events.
