Hindu Holiday Calendar

by Matthew on November 16, 2007

I missed Diwali this year so I hunted around the internet looking for an .ics or .vcs file that I could import into my Outlook calendar. I couldn’t find any and the default holiday tool that comes with Outlook 2007 doesn’t include any Hindu holidays either. So, I made one for 2008 – 2009 (based on the dates from here) if you want to download it. It includes most of the major celebrations:

Update (9/22/2008): I’ve updated the .ics file. You can grab it here. The new file includes the remaining holidays for this year through the end of 2011. So, 2008 – 2011.

Okay, Neelesh, I’ve updated the file through 2011. 50 years was a little much.

Hi, thanks for creating this it can prove very useful. But doesn’t Navaratri start on 30th Sept this year? Calendar says 19th Oct, please correct me if I’m wrong.
