You can choose to share a calendar with one or more people in iCloud. Those you invite receive an invitation to join the calendar.
1. Tap Calendars at the bottom of the screen.
2. Tapnext to the iCloud calendar you want to share.
3. Tap Add Person, then enter a name or email address, or tapto browse your contacts.
Note: Your contacts must have an email address to share an iCloud calendar. See Add and use contact information on iPhone.
4. Tap Add.
You can also find those steps in this resource: Share iCloud calendars on iPhone - Apple Support
Additionally, this resource covers that process using the iCloud website: Share a calendar on iCloud.com - Apple Support
If you are instead wanting to create and share a calendar via Gmail, you'll want to reach out to Google Support: Google Help They'd be in the best position to assist with that process through their particular platform and service.
Take care.
