Apple Calendar shows error that there is insufficient storage space for account "iCloud"

Even though I have 40 GB of open iCloud storage available Apple Calendar won't allow any new calendar entries. Returns error that there is insufficient storage space for account "iCloud" for that specific calendar event. How do I fix this?
