How to sync with Google Calendar?

Question

Can't seem to find how to sync the built in Calendar that comes with Kubuntu.

Here's what it shows me when I click "Configure Digital Clock":

And this is my System Information:

Thank you :)

You have to add the calendar in Korganizer..see e.g. ubuntubuzz.com/2017/05/… — Bruni, Jul 23, 2019 at 8:44
Hmm. that's odd. Korganizer is a KDE product. Why wasn't it installed by default? — AFwcxx, Jul 23, 2019 at 9:11
It's working. Thanks mate. The blog is outdated by the way, the options are different places in Korganizer. — AFwcxx, Jul 23, 2019 at 9:57

Try the widget called Event Calendar link.

For installation and setup, refer to its github page

It does the job

Once you've installed and configured KOrganizer, you can use kdepim-addons to let the panel widget show its events.

install KOrganizer as described in totymedli answer
install kdepim-addons: sudo apt install kdepim-addons
Right click on the clock in the panel -> Configure Digital Clock... -> Calendar -> Enable PIM Events Plugin
Still in Digital Clock settings, go to PIM Events Plugin and check all the calendars you want to show in the KDE clock/calendar widget.

Currently you can't do this. The closest thing is to install a desktop calendar and configure sync in it. For KOrganizer:

Install KOrganizer: sudo apt-get install korganizer the open it
Go to Settings->Configure KOrganizer->General->Calendars tab then Click Add...
Select "Google Calendars and Tasks" then click OK
On the top "Accounts" block then click Add
Login to you Google account then allow access to it
Check "Enable interval refresh" then set how often the syncing should happen
Select the calendars and tasklists you want to import then click OK
