October 2026 Calendar

Print it for fall planning: conferences, costume parties, harvest events and Halloween on Saturday the 31st. Teachers use it for a spooky-themed reading calendar, and families mark trick-or-treat plans on the fridge. Write online lets you try a plan on screen first. A single page takes seconds to download and print, and the big cells hold two or three short notes each, enough for a busy week of fall events.

October starts on Thursday, so the first week has only three days in it, and the month runs long into a fifth row. It ends on a Saturday, which makes Halloween a weekend event this year. With 31 days and a Monday holiday, plan reading logs and homework around the shorter first week. Many people count weeks wrongly here, so check the row against the date.

Keep Holidays on US federal to print Columbus Day, or choose US holidays and observances to add seasonal dates. Week numbers help if you plan by week. Notes works for a costume list or a project schedule. Start on Monday if your week begins there, and pick Landscape for wider cells.

Where does October 1 fall on this 2026 page?

Thursday. The 1st sits under Thursday, so the first row has only three days. The month has 31 days and ends on Saturday the 31st, which is Halloween.

Which holiday is printed in October 2026?

Columbus Day, on Monday, October 12, when Holidays is set to US federal. Choose US holidays and observances if you want Halloween and other dates printed, or No holidays for clean cells.

Can I add the names of events?

Yes, write them in by hand on the printed page, or press Write online and add them on screen. The notes area keeps a running list beside the grid for items that have no date.
