Hey there, folks! It’s your Holiday Little Assistant here, ready to help you out with all your public holiday needs. Recently, one of my friends asked me, “How do I add all holidays to my Google Calendar?” Great question! Whether you’re planning vacations, scheduling events, or just want to stay on top of those long weekends, adding holidays to your calendar is super handy. Let’s dive into the details and make sure you never miss a holiday again!

First things first, Google Calendar makes it super easy to add holidays. You don’t need to manually input each holiday—instead, you can sync a pre-made holiday calendar directly to your account. This is perfect for folks who want to stay organized without the hassle. Here’s how you can do it:

How to Add Holidays to Google Calendar

1. **Open Google Calendar**: Head over to Google Calendar on your computer or open the app on your phone. Make sure you’re signed in to your account.

2. **Go to Settings**: On the top right corner, click the gear icon and select “Settings.” Then, choose “Add calendar” from the menu on the left.

3. **Browse Public Calendars**: Scroll down until you see the option for “Browse calendars of interest.” Here, you’ll find a list of pre-made calendars, including holidays.

4. **Select Your Country’s Holidays**: Click on “Holidays” and pick your country from the list. Google Calendar offers holidays for tons of countries, so whether you’re in the U.S., Canada, or anywhere else, you’re covered.

5. **Sync and Enjoy**: Once you’ve selected your country’s holidays, they’ll automatically sync to your calendar. You’ll now see all the public holidays marked clearly, so you can plan ahead with ease.

Questions Related to Adding Holidays to Google Calendar

**Can I add holidays from multiple countries?**
Absolutely! If you’re interested in holidays from another country—maybe you have family abroad or you’re planning a trip—you can add multiple holiday calendars. Just repeat the steps above for each country you want to include.

**What if my country’s holidays aren’t listed?**
No worries! If Google Calendar doesn’t have your country’s holidays, you can manually import them. Many websites offer holiday calendar files (usually in .ics format) that you can download and upload to your Google Calendar.

**Can I customize how holidays appear on my calendar?**
Yep! Once the holidays are added, you can change their color or notifications. Just click on the holiday event in your calendar and adjust the settings to suit your preferences.

**Do holidays sync across devices?**
Yes, they do! Once you’ve added holidays to your Google Calendar, they’ll appear on all your devices where you’re signed in—your phone, tablet, or computer.

**Can I remove holidays later if I don’t need them?**
Of course! If you decide you no longer want holidays on your calendar, just go back to the settings, find the holiday calendar you added, and click “Unsubscribe.” Poof—they’re gone!

To wrap it up, adding holidays to your Google Calendar is a simple process that can save you a ton of time and hassle. Whether you’re keeping track of local holidays or planning around international ones, this feature is a game-changer. Plus, it’s customizable, so you can make it work just the way you like.
