How to see all your events by date on the Marquee calendar
Before you quote a date or call a customer back, you want to see what the hall already has on. The Calendar lays out every event of the month so you can check a date in seconds and open the event behind any tile.

Steps
1
Open the calendar
Click Home, then Overview › Calendar. The page says "Events by date — hover a tile for the details, click it to open the event." You see the month name, the Month, Week and Day buttons, Today, the previous and next arrows, the Hall and Status filters and a Show cancelled tick box. Under them is one cell per day from Sun to Sat, with today circled. Every event is a tile with a coloured dot, its start time, its title and the line "Hall · Customer". When two events fall on one day, such as 13 October, the tiles stack in that day. A Key under the grid names every colour.

Switch to week or day view
Press Week to get one row per day, such as "Sun, Oct 11, 2026 - Sat, Oct 17, 2026". A day with nothing on shows "No events"; otherwise each event shows its full time range and status, for example "04:00 PM - 08:00 PM · Closed".
Press Day to see a single date. On Tuesday 13 October it lists the Khan Family Dholki (4:00 pm to 8:00 pm, Closed) and the Zenith Corp Staff Iftar (8:00 pm to 11:00 pm, Completed). The arrows now move one week or one day at a time.

Filter by hall and status
Use the Hall list (All halls, Main Hall) and the Status list (All statuses, Draft, Inquiry, Quoted, Tentative, Confirmed, In preparation, In progress, Completed, Closed, Cancelled). With Confirmed chosen, October keeps only Ahmed & Sana Wedding on the 24th. The hall maintenance tiles on the 20th and 21st stay. Untick Show cancelled to hide called-off events.

Read the status dots and the key
The dot in front of each title shows the event's state, and the Key under the grid names every colour: Draft, Inquiry, Quoted, Tentative, Confirmed, In preparation, In progress, Completed, Closed, Cancelled and Hall blocked / maintenance. In December the Saad Rauf Butt Barat (12th) is confirmed, the Sana Farooq Mehndi Night (19th) is closed and the Zubair Anwar Nikah (20th) is cancelled and shown in red.

See when a hall is blocked or under maintenance
A hall that is out of use shows as a dashed amber tile, here "Main Hall under maintenance" on 20 and 21 October. Hover the tile for the reason and the time window.
The window is set in Catalogue › Halls › Schedule. The dialog "Main Hall — schedule & availability" has Check availability (Start, End, Check) and Blackout / maintenance windows, where this one reads "Maintenance 20-Oct-2026, 8:00 am → 21-Oct-2026, 8:00 pm · Stage repair". To add one, fill Start, End, Type (Blackout or Maintenance) and Reason, then press Add window.

See a wedding's functions on their dates
The functions of a wedding series are ordinary events, so the Hira Baig nikah (22 January), mayun (24 January) and barat (28 January) each sit on their own day, all drafts. Zubair Anwar Engagement (23 January) is cancelled and stays on the grid in red. Titles longer than the tile are cut.

Frequently asked questions
How do I check whether a date is free? Go to the month on the Calendar and look at the day's cell. Cancelled events also stay on the grid in red, and a blocked hall shows as a dashed tile, so look at the dot and the tile before you treat a date as free.
Can I see the time or the hall on the calendar? Yes. Each tile shows its start time, title and the line Hall · Customer, and Week and Day views show the full time range and status.
How do I get the events into my phone's calendar? Copy the link under Calendar feed (iCal) in Settings and subscribe to it in Google, Outlook or Apple Calendar.
