Hi Julian,

Would WebCalendar do the job for you: http://www.k5n.us/webcalendar.php?
 I think it has most, if not all, of the features you're looking for.

I maintain the www/webcalendar and www/webcalendar-devel ports, so let
me know if you need any other questions answered or help getting it set up.

Regards,
Greg
