About Today Celebrates

Today Celebrates is a daily calendar of national, international and world holidays and observances: 2,450 of them across 14 categories, each with a page of its own.

How the site is organised

Today shows what is being celebrated right now. Every date of the year has a page of its own listing everything that falls on it, and every observance has one page that always shows its next date. Categories lets you browse by theme, and the search box finds any observance by name.

Fixed and moving dates

Most observances fall on the same date every year. Some are set by a rule instead, such as the second Monday of a month or a number of days after Easter, so their date moves. Those pages show the next upcoming date, worked out from the rule rather than typed in by hand.

Share and save

Every page has Share and Copy link buttons, plus links to send it by email, text, Facebook, X or WhatsApp. Each observance page also has an Add to calendar link: it downloads a calendar file you can open in Apple Calendar, Google Calendar or Outlook, and observances with a fixed date repeat every year.

Subscribe to the calendar

The whole calendar is published as a subscribable feed: subscribe to every observance and the dates appear in your own calendar, updated every day, or download the file instead. Each category has a feed of its own, and so does every single observance. Observances with a fixed date repeat every year; ones set by a rule carry their next ten dates, and the feed refreshes as the years roll on.
