No, both do not need to have an iCloud Mail. But to share an iCloud Calendar, both must have an Apple ID.


An example. If I open and choose to share one of my iCloud Calendars, and send an invitation - then the person who receives the invitation must have an Apple ID to be able to participate in the calendar.


Please ask again if you need more.
