Frequently asked questions
Which April social media holidays are actually worth posting about?
Easter, Eid al-Fitr and Earth Day are the April dates with real audience attention behind them, and they are worth planning properly. Most of the rest are invented awareness days: a marketer registered them, and posting about one mainly signals that the account had nothing of its own to say. For April our advice is to skip April Fools' Day unless the day is genuinely your subject. Two posts you would have made anyway beat ten borrowed from a list.
Which April dates move each year?
Easter moves between 22 March and 25 April, with Orthodox Easter usually on a different Sunday, and Eid al-Fitr marks the end of Ramadan and shifts about eleven days earlier each year. This page describes the rule that fixes each one rather than printing a date, because a calendar that confidently prints the wrong day for a moveable holiday is worse than no calendar at all. Confirm the exact day against a current calendar before you schedule anything.
How far ahead should I plan April content?
Four to six weeks covers most April dates: long enough to brief creative, get approvals and build the supporting email. Easter moves, so anchor the plan to the actual date for the year you are in rather than to a fixed week in April. Anything involving paid media or stock needs longer.
Where are the other months?
Every month has its own page. The previous one is March and the next is May. The full twelve-month calendar lists all sixty dates in one place with search and month filters, and there is a separate 2027 planning page if you are building a whole year at once.
