How to make a QR code for an event or ticket
For an event, a QR code usually points to the page where people can see details, RSVP, or buy tickets — so a poster or invitation links straight to the action.
Link to your event page
- Copy the link to your event, RSVP form, or ticketing page.
- In Scan QR Code Master, open My Codes and create a New Code with the Type set to URL.
- Paste the link and generate the code.
- Add it to invitations, posters, and social graphics — and test it first.
About 'add to calendar' codes
Some tools can encode calendar-event details directly so scanning offers to add the event to a phone's calendar. A link to your event page is the most universally compatible option and lets you update details without reprinting.
FAQ
- Should an event QR code hold the details or a link?
- A link to your event page is usually best — it opens reliably on every phone and you can change details later. Encoding the details directly works too, but a link keeps things flexible.
