If this is an iCloud calendar, see below.

Please sign out of iCloud in its preference pane, then sign back in. No data will be removed from the servers. That said, you should always have a current archiveof the data for safety's sake, even if you don't sign out.

If you use iCloud Keychain, when you sign back in to iCloud follow one of the procedures described in this support article to set it up on an additional device.

Hi Many thanks for this suggestion, I just tried it and the problem happens again immediately after! I have noticed on another forum that dozens of people are having this same issue over the past couple of months. Is Apple planning to do anything about it as it's infuriating?!

I have posted this issue on another Apple forum. My calendar is on iCloud but I access it via my Mac. So logging in and out is not an issue. Also this is NOT an iOS problem. I do not have this issue when I put new events in my iPhone. This is ONLY a laptop issue and happens to others that are adding events to our shared calendar. Just to be clear, what I am doing now as a work around is adding a new event without any data. It then says

"new event". Then I open it up, select edit then add the data and it stays. If I just create a new event and add data and then add it that is when the data disappears.
