View attendee's time zone in calendar invite (google or outlook calendar details)
As a feature request, it would be very helpful if calendly included the Attendee’s time zone (or even better, the time of the calendar event according to their time zone) in the calendar invite details, so that I didn’t have to load up calendly’s website and find it myself. Often I want to check the time zone of my attendee, to check what time it will be there when we have the meeting. It takes a while to load up the calendly website and it can be quite frustrating.
Please include this as a future update! (seems like a simple one) (can be optional to include in the invite details)

Hey @Red38885 - Thanks for sending this over! I’ll get this logged with our product team as a feature request, hopefully we’ll see more on this in the future.
Could you tell me more about why this feature would be important for you? Any details you can share is super helpful!
Thank you very much!
I work with clients all over the world, and often they’ll schedule a call with me before we’ve ever spoken to see if they want to work with me. I have back to back meetings and in order to have the best conversation with a potential client, I want to be prepared if it is early in the morning for them, late at night, or where they’re joining a call from. Also, as many of them aren’t as tech-literate, they may get confused when the call actually is. Some of these clients may book a time on my calendar that is in the middle of the night for them, and if I can see ahead of time easily that they scheduled a time that’s not feasible for them, I can reach out to double check if it was an accident. This helps me avoid no-shows and multiple reschedules with attendees who I don’t even know yet are a good fit for my service. It’s valuable time saved by having this info up front for me on my Google Calendar synced from Calendly.
Got it - Thanks for sending all of this over, I appreciate it!
While it isn’t a feature now, in the meantime you can add a question to your booking form like ‘What timezone are you in?’, then, you can add this answer to your email confirmations and reminders through the Notifications & Workflows page here, in the end, the editor would look something like this:
