You can view them in: * Settings > General > “Timezone” * Let me know if that helps. * Thread Starter [quadratfix](https://wordpress.org/support/users/quadratfix/) * (@quadratfix) * [11 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/wrong-timezone-1/#post-5720720) * hello, * i checked the settings: UTC+1! * [richtl](https://wordpress.org/support/users/richtl/) * (@richtl) * [11 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/wrong-timezone-1/#post-5720757) * I can confirm the problem. My timezone is set (correctly) to New York, but my calendar widget is showing event times in UTC. Oddly, my calendar page and shortcodes are showing the correct times–only the widget is broken. * Rich * Plugin Contributor [Nick Young](https://wordpress.org/support/users/nickyoung87/) * (@nickyoung87) * [11 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/wrong-timezone-1/#post-5720759) * [@quadratfix](https://wordpress.org/support/users/quadratfix/), * Can you try using a city that has the same timezone to see if that fixes it? I think there may be a bug between using the “+/-” type values vs the “city” values so I am curious if that changes anything for you. Also be sure to clear the cache after you try that. * [@rich](https://wordpress.org/support/users/rich/), * Are you using the “New York” option or the “UTC-5” option in the admin? I am curious as noted above for [@quadratfix](https://wordpress.org/support/users/quadratfix/). Also if you could send me a link I would be glad to take a look. * Thanks! * Thread Starter [quadratfix](https://wordpress.org/support/users/quadratfix/) * (@quadratfix) * [11 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/wrong-timezone-1/#post-5720761) * Hi Nick, * great! That works! 🙂 Setting Berlin instead UTC+1 was the solution. * Thank you very much. * quadratfix * now is switching summertime / wintertime ok too! * Thread Starter [quadratfix](https://wordpress.org/support/users/quadratfix/) * (@quadratfix) * [11 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/wrong-timezone-1/#post-5720764) * the calling link now includes “ctz=Europe/Berlin” at the end: * [https://www.google.com/calendar/event?eid=Mm83Y280NWVlcjZodjUydGxzNGRncWV2bzAgYmVybmhhcmQuY3VudHpAc3NjLWRvbm5lcnNiZXJnLmRl&ctz=Europe/Berlin](https://www.google.com/calendar/event?eid=Mm83Y280NWVlcjZodjUydGxzNGRncWV2bzAgYmVybmhhcmQuY3VudHpAc3NjLWRvbm5lcnNiZXJnLmRl&ctz=Europe/Berlin) * Plugin Contributor [Nick Young](https://wordpress.org/support/users/nickyoung87/) * (@nickyoung87) * [11 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/wrong-timezone-1/#post-5720781) * Glad that worked for you.
