Google Calendar finally has an official dark mode on the web – here's how to find it



  • The web version of Google Calendar has an official dark mode
  • The feature will roll out globally this week to all Calendar users.
  • Google has also given Calendar an “updated user interface”

If you've been waiting patiently for years for Google Calendar to offer an official dark mode, today is your day: the web version of the app finally received an optional darker color scheme, along with a slight redesign.

The news came in a Google Workspace blog post where Google said it is introducing the ability to switch between light mode, dark mode, and default themes. As previous reports have noted, dark modes can give you a small battery life savings, especially if you're using a device with an OLED display.

The update is rolling out now, although so far it is also available to some members of the TechRadar team. To see if you have it, head to the settings gear at the top right of the page, then in the new drop-down menu, click “Appearance” (see above).
