Remember to turn off Ink for Google if you have that extension :)

It looks great but I can't upvote it because it can't handle multiple accounts on one screen (like Sunrise/Kin/Apple Calendar etc)
@brockgazure I think it's because I am using the enterprise version and my company needs to enable it.....

Try the new Calendar:
1. On a computer, open Google Calendar.
2. On the top right of your screen click Use new Calendar.
3. To go back to the old Calendar at any time, click Settings Settings and then Back to classic Calendar.
Note: If you cannot see "Use new Calendar", the new Calendar isn’t available for your account yet.
@brockgazure if you have a Google Business account, then follow the instructions here: https://support.google.com/a/ans...
"To choose the Manual option, go to Apps > G Suite > Calendar > New Calendar. Here, you can set by organizational unit when you’d like your users to access the new version of the Calendar UI."
For christ's sake, they finally paid attention to the product that's used by like a billion people. Many times I have resisted writing a post akin "15 reasons why I would fire google.calendar pm :)"
hallelujah.
I used the "time in the title" feature to set the event time for almost every item I created. This doesn't appear to be supported any more ;(
Pros:Fresh new UI was long overdue
Cons:Can no longer quickly create an event by typing "10a meeting"
Literally all I want in a calendar app is for someone to steal the "meet" feature from the old sunrise app. Anyone know of an app that does that?
Thank you very a lot for these extraordinary designs. I’m going to download it now. I’m looking ahead to new ones!

What about a new Google Calendar app for macbook? I would love to be able to view/manage multiple calendars , create events from multiple accounts from a single chart...
Very nice update to Google Calendar! Lots of snazzy new bells + whistles!
+ Great job Google on a fresh, clean, intuitive update to the existing calendar functionality 👍
- Nothing earth shattering in term of new, innovative functionality.
Overall is much better and improved than the older version. I love it.
Pros:The view is more fresh and comfortable to look up the schedule at a glance
Cons:It's more clean if the left column can be collapsed
@deleted-359395 Agree with you, I also design calendars http://dailyprintablecalendar.com/ see if you find some useful things.
this is rolling out to Google Apps users first (you have to enable it). It looks cool, I've got it enabled, but it will break some extensions if you use those.

@marcsnyder I have a Google Apps/Gsuite domain and accounts. I just saw someone else's post that explained that this had to be changed in the calendar app settings in the admin portal. I found it and made the change to default everyone to the new calendar, but it has to roll out. We'll see what happens...
