Change a calendar’s name or colour on Mac
A calendar is identified by its name and colour, which you can change at any time.
Changing a calendar’s colour changes the colour of all its events. If you want an event to have a different colour, either change the colour of the whole calendar or move the event to a calendar with a different colour.
