The Events Calendar allows you to inject content above and below the calendar. This is handy if you want to display an image above it, or perhaps some additional information below.

You’ll find these options under Events > Settings > Display > Additional Content.

Note that it’s possible to do this using calendar shortcodes instead of these settings. The calendar embed shortcode can be used on any WordPress page or post, allowing you to drop the calendar in the editor and write content above and below the shortcode as you would with any other page or post.

Hiding Additional Content on Single Event Pages

By default, Additional Content will appear on all event-related pages, including the main events page, event archives, and single event pages.

However, in some cases, you may want this content to appear only on archive or listing pages, and not on individual (single) event pages.

To exclude the content from single event pages, you can use the following conditional snippet:

//HTML before event content
add_filter( 
	'tribe_events_before_html', 
	function( $before ) {

		if ( is_singular( Tribe__Events__Main::POSTTYPE ) ) {
			return '';
		}

		return $before;
	} 
);

//HTML after event content
add_filter( 
	'tribe_events_after_html', 
	function( $after ) {

		if ( is_singular( Tribe__Events__Main::POSTTYPE ) ) {
			return '';
		}

		return $after;
	} 
);

See this article for using custom code snippets.
