I’ve published a data file for Jewish holidays from now through the year 5770 (July 2010). If you’re using an iCal-compatible calendar application, like Google Calendar or Mozilla Sunbird, you can subscribe to this and automatically add the holidays to your datebook. This particular calendar is useful for people who want a few of the important holidays, without all of the minor holidays and extra dates present on most Jewish Calendar iCal files. All holidays begin at sundown on the date before the date specified here. I found the holiday dates on a great website called Judaism 101.

I go looking for Jewish holidays beyond 2006 (which is where apple’s iCal file appears to stop), and what do I find but your web page. Go figure.
Except I WANT all the minor holidays and whatnot.
Hope all’s well with you.

Thank you SO much. I just wanted to be able to keep up with the major dates out of respect for my Jewish friends.
This is PERFECT! Thank you so much for posting this and letting us all subscribe to this!
Hi–how do you import the calendar into iCal–I’m having trouble with it.
Awesome! Thanks for posting this.
For those having trouble importing it, you need to get the URL for the calendar. Here it is:

Thank you very much, Ryan! Now finally I don’t run out of sync anymore, having all the holidays in my calendar. No need to fiddle around with 3 different paper calendars
Keep up the good work – I don’t wanna miss it in a few years
Thank you! It’s so helpful to be able to see everything in one place.
Thanks for solving the problem I was running into with the other Jewish holiday iCalendar files!
Are you going to add an update that will make it last longer than July 2010. This would be helpful with that date coming sooner than we think.

I’ve updated the calendar to include dates through 5772 (July 2012). Glad to see you’re all finding this useful!
This is great. The other Jewish calendar I had found had way to many holidays — just seeing the first day of the major holidays is all I wanted.
Thanks!
Very nice! Thanks!
