Dates marked "Movable" shift every year — always confirm the exact day against a current calendar before you schedule anything. Observances also vary by country: several of these are national or regional, and some are marked on different dates elsewhere. Treat this as a planning prompt, not authoritative scheduling data.

Frequently asked questions
Which February social media holidays are actually worth posting about?
Valentine's Day, Super Bowl Sunday and Black History Month are the February 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 February our advice is to skip Safer Internet Day unless the day is genuinely your subject. Two posts you would have made anyway beat ten borrowed from a list.
Which February dates move each year?
Safer Internet Day is the second Tuesday in February, the Super Bowl date is set by the league each season, and Black History Month runs the whole of February in the US and Canada but October in the UK. 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 February content?
Four to six weeks covers most February dates: long enough to brief creative, get approvals and build the supporting email. Valentine's gifting creative usually ships in mid-January, so February itself is mostly execution. Anything involving paid media or stock needs longer.
Where are the other months?
Every month has its own page. The previous one is January and the next is March. 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.
