Change Time Zone on iPhone Calendar

Whenever you set an event in the Calendar app, it automatically defaults to your current time zone. If you’re temporarily in a different time zone, like if you’re traveling, that can make scheduling meetings or other events for when you get home a little more difficult. Luckily, you can use the time zone override setting to keep the time zone consistent with other events.
