Anyone loading the site is met with a 404 error message. Google has not yet provided an explanation for the outage.

Problems began around 3:15pm BST, and show no signs of letting up yet.

So far, nearly 800 people have reported problems with the service to the website DownDetector.

Manchester, Dublin, London and Newcastle are among the cities worst hit in the UK.

We’ve asked Google for comment, and will update this article as and when they reply.

Angry users took to Twitter to vent their frustrations.

One joked: “Google calendar is down, we’re free!”

“THIS IS NOT A DRILL. Google Calendar is down. Grab your loved ones and head for cover,” said another.

Other tweeters chose to look on the bright side.

“Well s**t. I guess I don’t really have any meetings today,” quipped one user.
