“How to Change the Organizer on a Google Calendar Event”

Maybe you set up events for your boss or supervisor. Or perhaps you created an event that you can no longer attend. You can transfer the ownership of a Google Calendar event to another person and make them the organizer.

Change the Owner of an Event

Visit Google Calendar on the web and select the event you want to edit. You can make the change in the event’s pop-up window or detail page.

Then, enter the name or email address for the new owner and choose the person from the suggestions. The person you select does not have to be a current event attendee.

You can use the default message, edit it, or enter your own. Click “Change Owner” when you finish.

Note: If you change the organizer for a repeating event, this affects all future events. At the time of writing, you cannot transfer ownership for only one event in a series.

The new owner will receive an email with your message and a link to accept this change to make them the organizer of the meeting.
