    This is so simple, but so awesome.

    Actually, it seems to only work with Facebook set to English. Kept trying this same trick with my Fb account set to French and events weren’t appearing in Gcal.
    Weird.

    This does not add the events to your primary calendar which means sms and agendas don’t work not to mention exchange support. How can we automatically import facebook events to the primary calendar?

    This works only for your personal calendar, not for pages.

    Thanks for this this is brilliant! One minor problem is that events I’m not attending, still show up in my calender. Is there a way to remove them?

    All the events show up on the calendar eight hours earlier than they should. Hasn’t anybody else in Pacific Time experienced the same? How do I fix it?

    Need to be able to add the events to my main Calendar for exchange sync with iPhone!
