PrintableCalendars

Why we built this

Most printable calendar sites either require a login, bury the download behind ads, or produce PDFs that look like they were generated in 1998. We wanted a calendar that opens fast, looks clean, and prints well — whether you are planning a month at work, marking school events for your kids, or just putting something on the fridge.

The public holidays matter too. A calendar without holidays is just a grid. We include official public holidays for each supported country, pulled from maintained datasets — so you can see at a glance which days offices are closed, which weeks have long weekends, and when things like Golden Week or Chuseok actually fall.

Supported countries

More countries are on the roadmap. Australia, Canada, the UK, and Germany are next. If there is a country you need urgently, let us know via the contact page.

How the PDF works

When you click the download button, the server renders the calendar page using a headless Chromium browser (via puppeteer-core and @sparticuz/chromium) and exports it as a PDF. The output is A4 landscape by default, formatted to use the full page width with clean print margins.

Public holiday data comes from date-holidays, an open-source library with actively maintained holiday datasets for over 100 countries. We filter to official public holidays only — no observances, no regional-only days, unless they are genuinely national.

The calendar design is optimised for both colour and black-and-white printing. No background fills, no decorative elements that eat ink. Holidays appear in a distinct colour on screen but degrade gracefully to a label in B&W.

World events and holiday guides

Beyond the calendar grid, we maintain two content libraries:

• →World Events — 100+ international observances — from Earth Day to World Mental Health Day. Each entry has a history, cultural context for our three supported countries, and a list of activities.
• →Cultural Holidays — In-depth guides to major cultural holidays like Chuseok, Golden Week, and Thanksgiving — origin, history, traditional food, and travel tips.

These are written to be actually useful — not a recitation of Wikipedia facts or search-engine filler. If something reads like a press release, it does not belong here.
