"The Editorial Calendar makes it possible to see all your posts and drag and drop them to manage your blog.
Did you remember to write a post for next Tuesday? What about the Tuesday after that? WordPress doesn't make it easy to see when your posts are scheduled. The editorial calendar gives you an overview of your blog and when each post will be published. You can drag and drop to move posts, edit posts right in the calendar, and manage your entire blog."

Since I've originally written this post, at least two calendar plugins have been updated to use custom post types.
Calendar Press looks like a really good option. There's also Kino Calender Plugin. If you're just looking for a plug and go solution, I'd recommend trying out on of those.
Thanks for the Kino calendar plugin, I've been looking for a good yet simple calendar for a while. Kino could use some more features, but works well and has multi-day visual support in the calendar widget.

"Sell tickets with WooCommerce
With the WooCommerce Tickets add-on for The Events Calendar/Events Calendar PRO, taking control of ticket sales for an upcoming event has never been easier. No third-party websites, no ticket fees…just you, your attendees and one kick ass event. WooCommerce Tickets allows you to add as many tickets as you wish to a given event, and then sell those tickets entirely within your site. Each ticket can have it's own price, stock, SKU and specified timeframe for when ticket sales open/close. Want to have cheap tickets or special packages for the first 100 buyers? Aiming to give discounts to those who buy earlier than a week before the event? Need different ticket "packages" and a way to easily differentiate between what they contain on the frontend?"
