How do you plan social media posts around the 2027 holidays?

Pair each date with a format before you write anything: a public holiday usually earns a short video or a Reel, a lower-key observance a carousel or a single post. Write the posts a few weeks ahead, then schedule them so they publish on the day even when the team is off. In SkedCast, import a month of posts at once with bulk scheduling and see them on the content calendar. For another country's holidays, use the social media holiday calendar, and for the yearly awareness days, such as World Emoji Day, see the social media calendar 2027.

How do you use the 2027 holiday calendar download?

  1. Scroll the full list. Every 2027 US-calendar holiday and observance is listed on this page with its date and type.
  2. Pick a format. Download CSV for a spreadsheet or bulk-import workflow, or download the iCal (.ics) file to add every date to a calendar app in one import.
  3. Import into your calendar app. Most calendar apps (Google Calendar, Outlook, Apple Calendar) have an "Import" option that accepts an .ics file directly.
  4. Cross-reference against your content plan. Use the dates alongside your own content calendar to plan posts around holidays relevant to your audience.

What does it look like in practice?

Importing into Google Calendar

Download the .ics file, open Google Calendar’s Settings > Import & export, choose the file, and every one of the year’s holidays appears as an all-day event you can toggle on or off as its own calendar.

Bulk-planning content around 2 or 3 key dates

Download the CSV, filter to the "public" holiday type, and cross-reference those dozen or so dates against your existing content calendar to plan posts 2-3 weeks ahead of each one.

Does this cover a different year than 2027?
This page is built for 2027 specifically; the per-month and per-country pages linked from the main holiday calendar hub can be adapted for other years by changing the year in the underlying data if you need an older year.
What is the difference between the CSV and the iCal file?
The CSV is a plain spreadsheet (date, holiday name, type) for filtering or bulk-import workflows; the iCal (.ics) file is a real calendar-import format that most calendar apps read directly as all-day events.
Is anything uploaded when I download a file?
No — both files are generated entirely in your browser from data already rendered on this page; nothing is sent to a server when you click download.
Which country’s holidays does this cover?
This full-year download uses the US calendar as the reference calendar, the same as the per-month pages; visit the dedicated country pages from the main holiday calendar hub for other countries.
Where does the holiday data come from?
From date-holidays, an open-source holiday-rules library (CC-BY-3.0) — the same library SkedCast’s own in-app content calendar uses, not a hand-typed list.
Will the iCal file update automatically if a holiday date changes?
No — it is a one-time snapshot generated when you download it; re-download the file if the underlying holiday data is ever updated.
