Copying Events from Calendar to another Calendar

I have a private calendar on my PC with some Events in it. Recently I added in a radicale based calendar hosted on my network. Now I'm trying to copy events from my own private calendar to that webbased calendar but I cannot get it to work properly. When I select one calendar, select the Events and the copy them, then select the other calendar and deselect the old one and paste it, it ignores the selected calendars and only puts it in my old one. But when I deactivate (not only deselecting) my old one and paste then, it pastes the events into the new calendar. But their info is messed up, it switched the names of most events and even the times are not correct, looks as if the yearnumber was put 55 years into the future for some weird reason.

Is there any way to properly copy a bunch of events to a different calendar in Lightning?

Chosen solution

Right-click the private calendar in the left pane - Export. Save it as an .ics file.

Then import the saved file: Events and Tasks (Alt-N) - Import

You'll be prompted for the target calendar: Which calendar do you want to import these items into?

See if that works any better.

That actually did the trick, thanks for the advice. Still weird bugs that I described in my first message.
