When selecting you can disabled the overlap:

selectOverlap: false

When you drag&drop:

eventOverlap: false

var events = $('#calendar').fullCalendar('clientEvents');

// start-time in between any of the events
if(eventStartDay > events[i].start && eventStartDay < events[i].end){
    return true;
}
//end-time in between any of the events
if(eventEndDay > events[i].start && eventEndDay < events[i].end){
    return true;
}
//any of the events in between/on the start-time and end-time
if(eventStartDay <= events[i].start && eventEndDay >= events[i].end){
    return true;
}

Check those conditions after putting them inside a function and call that function while create/update of an event! I was troubled with the same issue :) Hope it gives atlest some idea. – Nidhin Bose J. Sep 25 '12 at 06:11

I guess the easiest way to achieve this is to manipulate the event source. That is if you're using a source that is changeable.
