Is it possible to change the date formatting in Squarespace? We use dd-mm-yyy in Australia.

Go to Settings > Language & Region and check the Site language.

This should change the date format for Events on your Brine-family 7.0 template.

Here's an example where the dates change:

Interestingly it's now displaying as expected on the Single event page, eg. /special-events/the-waltz  but still in US format on the main Events page /events

The site language affects Events pages, so it will have corrected the Events list page as well as the individual event pages.

Your other events page is a standard page containing a Summary Block, and sadly these Blocks don't comply! 😬

The only way to modify the date format on Summary Blocks is to write custom JavaScript to modify them. 

I hope this helps to explain.
