Sure, here you go:

import vobject, datetime

cal = vobject.iCalendar()
ev1 = cal.add('vevent')
ev1.add('dtstart').value = datetime.datetime.now()
ev1.add('summary').value = "First event"
ev2 = cal.add('vevent')
ev2.add('dtstart').value = datetime.datetime.now()
ev2.add('summary').value = "Second event"
print [ev.dtstart for ev in cal.vevent_list]

[<DTSTART{}2007-07-12 15:45:47.651089>,
 <DTSTART{}2007-07-12 15:46:05.367089>]

print cal.serialize()
