Calendly can block off your availability for holidays based on your country. This helps you take time off without needing to adjust your schedule manually.
Customize your holiday settings
You can edit the list of holidays you observe to match your personal or cultural needs. These settings apply to all your event types.
Calendly supports holiday settings in several countries. You can view the full list below.
- Australia
- Brazil
- Canada
- France
- Germany
- Mexico
- Netherlands
- Spain
- United Kingdom
- United States
If you want to be available for one event type on a holiday, but not others:
- Go to the Availability page.
- Turn off the holiday block for that day.
- Add Date-specific hours of unavailability to any event types you want to keep unavailable.
Note
You must turn off a holiday block before adding availability for that day. Date-specific hours cannot override an active holiday.
Manage your holiday settings
- Open the Availability page from the left-hand menu.
- Click the Holidays tab.
- Confirm your country setting.
- Use the On/Off toggle next to each holiday:
On = you’re unavailable for scheduling.
Off = you’re available for scheduling.
Need to add a missing holiday?
If a holiday you observe isn't listed:
- Add Date-specific hours to your availability.
- Or, add an all-day busy event to your connected calendar.
