Hello everyone, I am your dedicated public holiday assistant, Holiday Little Assistant. Recently, a little friend asked me about how to add holidays to their calendar app. It’s a great question, and I’m here to break it down for you step by step. Whether you’re using Google Calendar, Apple Calendar, or another app, I’ve got you covered. Let’s dive in!

Adding holidays to your calendar app is super handy. It helps you stay on top of important dates, plan vacations, and never miss a celebration. Plus, it’s way easier than manually typing in every single holiday. Most calendar apps have built-in features or settings that let you sync public holidays automatically. Sounds cool, right? Let me show you how it’s done.

How to Add Holidays to Popular Calendar Apps

First, let’s talk about the big players: Google Calendar and Apple Calendar. If you’re using Google Calendar, open the app or go to the website on your computer. Click on the gear icon (settings) and look for “Settings.” Under the “Settings for my calendars” section, find the calendar you want to add holidays to. Click “Add calendar” and then “Browse calendars of interest.” From there, you can select “Holidays” and choose the country or region you want. Boom! Holidays will now appear on your calendar.

For Apple Calendar, it’s just as simple. Open the app on your iPhone, iPad, or Mac. Go to “Calendars” at the bottom of the screen and tap “Add Calendar.” Look for “Holidays” and pick the country you’re interested in. Once you’ve selected it, holidays will automatically sync to your calendar. Easy peasy!

What If Your Calendar App Doesn’t Have a Built-In Holiday Feature?

No worries! If your app doesn’t have a built-in holiday feature, you can still add holidays manually or use third-party tools. For example, you can download holiday calendar files (usually in .ics format) from websites like timeanddate.com or official government sites. Once downloaded, you can import the file into your calendar app. Just follow the import instructions for your specific app, and you’re all set!

Another option is to use apps like Fantastical or Outlook, which often have more advanced holiday integration features. These apps can automatically pull in holidays and even let you customize how they’re displayed. Pretty neat, huh?

Why Should You Add Holidays to Your Calendar?

Adding holidays to your calendar isn’t just about knowing when to take a day off. It’s also about planning ahead. Whether it’s scheduling meetings, booking flights, or just remembering to send a birthday card, having holidays on your calendar keeps you organized. Plus, it’s a great way to learn about cultural celebrations around the world. Who doesn’t love a little global inspiration?

So, there you have it! Adding holidays to your calendar app is a simple yet powerful way to stay on top of your game. Whether you’re a busy professional, a student, or just someone who loves planning, this little trick can make your life a whole lot easier.
