I exported our quarterly planning calendar to ICS and converted it to XLSX so the project manager could analyze meeting frequency by team — the Excel file had all event fields in separate columns ready for filtering and pivot tables.

Used this to convert a series of ICS files from different team calendars into a single XLSX workbook for a meeting scheduling audit — processing 12 calendar files individually and combining the sheets took less than 10 minutes.

I needed to track conference sessions from an exported ICS file in an event tracking spreadsheet — converting to XLSX gave me a properly structured table with start time, end time, and location in dedicated columns.

ICS to XLSX Conversion — FAQ ▼

What is an .ics file?

ICS is the iCalendar format defined in RFC 5545. It is the calendar interchange standard Google Calendar, Outlook, Apple Calendar, and Thunderbird all use for sharing meetings, events, and tasks.

Why convert ICS to XLSX?

Calendars are great for viewing your week, but bad for analysis. XLSX puts each event on a row so you can sort by date, filter by location, sum hours per project, or run pivot tables.

What columns does the XLSX have?

Typical columns are Start, End, Duration, Summary, Location, Description, Organizer, and Status. Recurring events are expanded into individual occurrences within the export range.

Are timezones preserved?

Yes. The converter reads TZID values from the ICS and writes dates in a consistent format. All-day events are flagged so you can distinguish them from timed meetings.

Can I import the XLSX into Google Sheets or Numbers?

Yes. XLSX is the universal spreadsheet format — Excel, Google Sheets, LibreOffice Calc, and Apple Numbers all read it natively.

Will recurring events appear as one row or many?

Recurring events (RRULE) are unfolded into one row per occurrence in the period the file covers, with EXDATE exceptions honoured. That makes per-day reporting straightforward.

Is the conversion free?

Yes. This online ICS-to-XLSX tool is free with a 50 MB upload limit. For year-end calendar reports across many calendars, drive the same conversion from a script.

Convert ICS to XLSX — iCalendar Events to Excel Rows

ICS is the calendar interchange format used by Google Calendar, Outlook, and Apple Calendar. XLSX is the format you need when somebody asks for a list of meetings in a spreadsheet. Converting ICS to XLSX flattens each event into a row with start, end, summary, and location columns. Drop your .ics file above.

What Is ICS?

ICS (iCalendar) is the IETF standard for calendar data, defined in RFC 5545. The file is a plain-text VCALENDAR block containing one or more VEVENT entries with DTSTART, DTEND, SUMMARY, LOCATION, and DESCRIPTION fields. Every modern calendar app — Google, Outlook, Apple, Thunderbird — imports and exports ICS natively.

What Is XLSX?

XLSX is the modern Excel workbook format, introduced with Office 2007 and standardised as Office Open XML (ECMA-376, ISO 29500). The file is a ZIP package of XML parts. Excel, LibreOffice Calc, Google Sheets, and Numbers all read XLSX, making it the universal sheet format for filtering and analysis.
