Ready to get started with New Calendars?
This article is for Calendar Manager module users.
We're excited to share our updated plan and timeline for transitioning to the New Calendars module. Thank you for your patience and support as we work to make this migration smooth. Although our original timeline has shifted, we're confident this revised plan will ensure a successful rollout.
- Now – June 2025: Seeking 100 clients for early migration. Due to the large volume of requests received, the form has been disabled. If you are selected, expect us to reach out before the end of June with next steps.
- July 2025 - December 2025: Clients not selected for early migration can initiate their own fully automated migration. We'll reach out with more details.
- January 2026: All clients can initiate their automated migration.
- August 31, 2026: End of Life for Calendar Manager. Remaining clients will be migrated.

Instead of manually adding common events like holidays, you can create a new calendar specifically for displaying holidays, and then set it to automatically update from an iCal feed with the appropriate data.
First, grab an iCal feed of upcoming holidays from iCalshare.com. Search for a feed with the holiday schedule you want, and click on the name to go to that feed's page. Right-click the "Subscribe to Calendar" button, and select the "Copy Link Address" option from the context menu to save the iCal feed URL.
Go to Calendar Manager and create a new calendar. Use the calendar type "Live iCal," and paste the iCal feed URL you just copied into the appropriate field.
This calendar should automatically display upcoming US holidays.
Important Note
Feeds are synced hourly, so it may take some time for the events to display in Calendar Manager.
For more information about Live iCal calendars in Calendar Manager, see the Knowledge Base article Using iCal Feeds to synchronize multiple calendar systems.
