What is on the calendar

Each month shows the Ethiopian date in large numbers and the Gregorian date in small numbers underneath, with weeks starting on Monday. The year 2019 E.C. runs from Meskerem 1 (Friday, September 11, 2026) to Pagume 6 (Saturday, September 11, 2027). It is a leap year, so Pagume has 6 days.

Public holidays are circled in red, and religious days and fasts that are not public holidays are underlined. Every holiday is also listed under the calendar with its date on both calendars. Names can be shown in Amharic, in English, or in both.

Easter and the holidays that depend on it are calculated with the Bahire Hasab, the traditional Ethiopian method. Eid al-Fitr, Eid al-Adha and the Prophet's Birthday follow the Islamic lunar calendar and are announced after the moon is sighted, so the official day can differ from the printed one by a day.

How to save the calendar as a PDF

Press “Print / Save as PDF” to open your browser's print dialog. The site menus, buttons and this text are left out; only the calendar is printed.

On a computer (Chrome, Edge or Firefox), set the destination or printer to “Save as PDF” and click Save. In Safari on a Mac, open the PDF menu at the bottom of the print dialog and choose “Save as PDF”.

On Android, tap the printer name at the top of the print screen, choose “Save as PDF”, then tap the PDF button. On an iPhone or iPad, tap the Share button at the top of the print options and choose “Save to Files”.

Printing tips

The full year fits on A4 or Letter paper in portrait, usually two pages: twelve months on the first and Pagume with the holiday list on the second. A single month prints on one landscape page with the holiday names written in the days.

For a cleaner page, turn off “Headers and footers” in the print settings, and leave the scale at 100% or “Default”.
