How can I add the date to the tooltips, ideally next to or right below the event title?

Hi,

You would have to edit a core file to achieve this. So, bearing in mind updates to the calendar will remove the changes, you could edit the espresso-calendar/espresso-calendar.php file, approx line 696

Change it so it reads like this

if ( $show_tooltips ) {

$events[ $cntr ]['description'] = $event->start_date ? '<p class="time_cal_qtip">' . __('Date: ', 'event_espresso') . date(get_option('date_format'), strtotime($event->start_date) )  . ' - ' . date( get_option('date_format'), strtotime($event->end_date) ) . '</p>' : '';

// gets the description of the event. This can be used for hover effects such as jQuery Tooltips or QTip
$events[ $cntr ]['description'] .= wpautop( stripslashes( do_shortcode( $event->event_desc )));
