We are planning to implement this the same way we did for the news tiles: if an event has one or more categories assigned, it will be marked with a unique CSS class. That way, an admin can create custom CSS for all the places where events are shown (Event Hub, the various macros) and implement the visual marking any way they want: colors, icons, etc.
If all goes to plan, it will be available with Linchpin Suite 5.6 / Linchpin Events 3.10, both scheduled for late March 2023.

Our customer also would like to have such a feature.

Enrico Skottnik: could you please elaborate on this a little bit? On which factors would your customer want that color to be set? Should the event creator be able to set them manually? Or would it depend on the event category?
Of course, if anyone else of the voters for this issue wants to chime in with their view, please feel free to do so!

Angela Gaida: It would be great if it would be possible to set a color for each category. At the moment we have a lot of categories in our project therefore the calendar view is often needed but quite hard to read . hope that helps
Angela Gaida
Maria: thanks for your opinion :) That's what I was thinking too, tying the color to the category.

Angela Gaida Different event categories should be given different colours. This makes it easier to distinguish between all events in the calendar and list view right away. Hope this helps to understand the need.
Angela Gaida
Yes it does, Enrico Skottnik thank you very much :)
