A free calendar of days off around the world

WideCal is a free public calendar of national holidays, cultural observances, and international days.

Every country has its own page and its own language. France opens in French, Israel in Hebrew, Japan in Japanese. English is always available.

The homepage is a map of the world: browse countries, see who is off today, and open that country's calendar. We load only the country and year you asked for. Past years can be stored. Current and upcoming dates refresh on a short cache.

Lists come from public sources. They are for orientation, not an official government or employer calendar. If a date looks wrong, the local authority is the source of truth.

No account. No paywall. A reference, not a social network.
