# Local calendar

> Local calendar is a built-in integration for Home Assistant. It has 50.4k installs sharing analytics and works locally.

Local calendar is a built-in Home Assistant integration that keeps calendars stored locally. It adds calendar entities to Home Assistant, so events can be created and kept without any outside calendar service. Setup happens in the UI, where a calendar name is entered and an ICS file can optionally supply the starting data. Nothing extra needs to be installed, since the integration ships with Home Assistant. A diagnostics file can be downloaded to attach to a bug report.
