A port of ical is now available.  You can get it from

ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/ports/utils/ical.tar.gz (source)
ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/packages/utilities/ical-1.9.tgz (binary)

and the corresponding directories on mirror sites.

This is another calendar program using Tcl/Tk.  This port was done
by Eric L. Hernes (erich@lodgenet.com).

P.S. Note that the "source" above is actually the ports skeleton only;
     when you extract it on your machine (preferably into
     /usr/ports/utils) and type "make", it will automatically fetch the
     original source and builds the program.  Try "make fetch-list" if
     you are not IP connected to obtain a list of files you need to
     fetch.
