Steps

Inviting a Google Group to a Google Calendar Event can be done the same way that you invite guests in general. When editing the event, type the name of the Google Group into the Guests field. Once you click on the name of the Google Group, anyone that is part of the Group will receive an invitation. You can verify this by clicking on the name of the Google Group, which will drop down with the list of people included.image depicting the calendar event with the google group invited
