Why add the FIFA World Cup schedule to your calendar

While you can certainly rely on various apps to keep tabs on the competition, I have found that the best way to follow the days and times of the various games is to subscribe to a calendar of the event.

This way, you can quickly see what teams are playing on any given day and find out what time the games are scheduled for in your time zone. For such a competition, time zone support is essential because nobody wants to have to deal with trying to figure out what 4 PM in New Zealand equals in Los Angeles.

The calendar that I have selected for you does offer timezone support, meaning each game will be displayed in your local time in your calendar.

This calendar should also update automatically as teams move forward in the competition.

How to get the FIFA World Cup schedule on your calendar

There are so many devices out there that can subscribe to a calendar that it is impossible to show a detailed tutorial for each of them. That said, the concept is virtually the same whether you use an iPhone, an Android device, an iPad, a Mac, or a PC. For that reason, I will only show you how to get the FIFA World Cup schedule on your iPhone or on your Mac’s Calendar app.

On iPhone and iPad

1) Visit the 2023 FIFA Women’s World Cup (Australia & New Zealand) Games calendar page on your iPhone or iPad.

2) Tap Apple iCal.

3) When asked whether you want to subscribe to the calendar, tap Subscribe.

4) On the next screen, you can customize the name of the calendar and the account it is added to. I suggest using iCloud so it syncs with your other Apple devices. You can also change the color of the calendar, disable event alerts, and more. When you’re done tweaking the settings to your liking, tap Add in the upper right corner of the screen. Finally, tap Done.

Now, launch the Calendar app on your iPhone or iPad, where all the events are listed. If you go to July-August, you should see all fixtures populated into your calendar app of choice. If you don’t see any fixture, make sure the calendar you added is indeed enabled in your Calendar app.

When the competition is over, you can go to your iPhone or iPad Calendar app > Calendars > tap the info icon ⓘ next to your FIFA Women’s World Cup calendar, and select Unsubscribe > Unsubscribe. This will remove the calendar from your device.

On Mac

If you followed the steps on your iPhone or iPad and had selected iCloud, then you do not need to subscribe to the FIFA schedule calendar again on your Mac, as events from your iOS device will already sync to the Calendar app on your computer. However, if you have not done that, here’s how to subscribe to the 2023 FIFA Women’s World Cup calendar on your Mac.

1) Visit 2023 FIFA Women’s World Cup (Australia & New Zealand) Games calendar page in a web browser on your Mac.

2) Click Apple iCal, and you will be prompted to open this page in the Calendar app. Allow that.

4) This is where you can customize this calendar subscription a bit. You can, for example:

  • Change the name of the calendar
  • Select a color for the events labels (green is best, of course)
  • Select the location of the calendar, either On My Mac if you want the calendar to only appear on your Mac, or iCloud if you want this calendar to sync with your other Apple devices (recommended)
  • Show or remove event alerts and attachments. I like to keep both so that I can receive an alert before a game is about to start.
  • Change the auto-refresh rate of the calendar. Every day seems to be an appropriate refresh rate.
  • Choose to ignore alerts or not.

5) Once you have made changes according to your preferences, click OK. And just like that, you have the full calendar of the competition on your Mac.
