Hi guys<\/p>\n

I’ve read every forum post related to this, but none of them have an answer by TEC as to how to fix it.<\/p>\n

The event dates that show up in Google search results as event snippets are one day out from the actual event dates as displayed on the front end event page.<\/p>\n

i.e. event date is Sat 7 October 2017 (set in event admin and displaying on front-end), but Google is displaying it as Fri 6 October 2017.<\/p>\n

When I put the same event page through Google’s Structured Data Testing Tool, it shows the event dates incorrect:<\/p>\n

startDate\t 2017-10-06T20:00:00+00:00
\nendDate\t2017-10-06T23:00:00+00:00<\/p>\n

I have the correct timezone setting in WordPress settings (Sydney, Australia), and the Timezone Settings in the Events settings is set to “Use Local Time Zones For Each Event”.<\/p>\n

From what I understand, this means the schema dates TEC is creating are set in a certain time zone, and it’s not picking up the timezone set by the event.<\/p>\n
