In my Google Calendar I have visibility over several shared calendars. If multiple people who share calendars with me attend the same event, I can see the event quite a few times.

Question: Is there a way to change my settings such that I can see all shared calendars, but it will condense identical events into a single entry?
Click on the dropdown box next to a calendar on the left side of google calendar. Click "calendar settings". Scroll down and select "Customize the color, size, and other options" in the section for "embed this calendar". Select the calendars you want to display and set the colors as you wish and change whatever other settings you want to. Then, copy the generated HTML and embed it into an html file wherever it is you want to provide this page. If you don't have your own hosting, then you can just extract the iframe's source link from the generated HTML and just point your friend there.
Google Calendar does not provide a way to merge the same event that appears in multiple calendars, and Google has been blatantly ignoring requests to do so dating as far back as 2009
The only solution might be to use a Chrome extension, gcal-multi-event-merge**, which unfortunately doesn't work in the monthly view. For the 1 and 4-day views, and for the weekly view, it works great:
