Event List vs. Calendar "app"
What is the difference, if any, of an Event List vs adding a Calendar App to a site? We are doing a company wide calendar for key events and maybe executive PTO times. What is the best calendar to us...

To the best of my understanding....they are one and the same. Either way it shows up in site contents as an events list. I believe if you are adding apps to a modern site or modern site page, you shall see "event list" and when you are adding apps to classic sites and classic pages, you will see the word "calendar."
My suggestion is to deal with Modern whenever you can. I hope this helps...others please feel free to correct if I misspoke!

pnthrzrule Thanks!
I was in a Modern site and Events List was already in Contents. I hit New and selected App and among the choices was Calendar.
It seems like they might be the same thing, but then why are the called something different. Or is that adding a "legacy" style calendar?
