Week Cal and Fantastical are available for iPhone for a small charge and Jorte Calendar is available free for Android. If you want to give the native Android calendar a boost, Agenda Widget is a customisable add-on that costs a couple of dollars.

If you have a Windows phone and want an alternative to the native calendar, Chronos is a good option. It costs a couple of dollars and has a free trial to start you off.

Daybees is a great place to go to find events of interest, with a database of over 1.5 million gathered from across the web in over 230 genres from football matches and concerts, to auctions and crochet classes.
