Answer 1

If you want to open the form in the whole page, the link should be like this:
Add New Event
To open in a modal dialog:
function openDialog() {
var url = "<weburl>/Lists/<calendarlist>/NewForm.aspx";
var options = {
title: "Add New Event",
width: 400,
height: 600,
url: url
};
SP.UI.ModalDialog.showModalDialog(options);
}
Add New Event
Overwrite <weburl> with the web relative url and <calendarlist> with the relative url of the list (most of times the list name)
Example: https://mysiteurl/Lists/Calendar/NewForm.aspx
