Social media calendar for the UK

This social media calendar for the UK lists every public holiday and observance in United Kingdom for 2026 and 2027, computed from date-holidays’ open rules rather than a hand-typed list, so you can plan country-specific content — national holidays, bank holidays, and observances — well before each date arrives.

Holiday data © date-holidays contributors, CC-BY-3.0.

Build these dates into a real posting schedule rather than a one-off note: the social media holiday calendar hub covers every country and month this calendar tracks, the social media holidays by month page breaks 2027 out one month at a time, and the monthly social media planner turns any of these dates into a scheduled post.

UK social media calendar FAQ

How many holidays does United Kingdom observe?
United Kingdom has 11 public holidays and observances recorded for 2026, computed from date-holidays’ own rules.
Where does this 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.
Are moon-sighting holidays (like Eid) confirmed exact dates?
No — holidays set by moon sighting can land a day early or late. Treat those dates as expected, not confirmed, the same way a phone calendar does.
