Step 2: Select the Calendar
Once you’re logged in, you’ll see a list of calendars on the left-hand side of the screen. Click on the calendar that contains the holidays you want to remove. If you’re unsure which calendar the holidays are on, you can select “All calendars” to view them all.
Step 3: View the Calendar
After selecting the calendar, click on the “Week” or “Month” view to see the holidays listed. If you’re using the “Month” view, you’ll notice that holidays are marked with symbols or icons.

To remove a holiday, click on the event to select it. Then, right-click (or press and hold on a mobile device) and choose “Delete” from the dropdown menu. Confirm the deletion if prompted.
Step 5: Repeat for Other Holidays
Repeat steps 4 for each holiday you want to remove from the calendar. Once you’ve deleted all the unwanted holidays, your calendar should be clutter-free and tailored to your preferences.
Step 6: Customize Your Calendar
If you want to remove holidays from your calendar permanently, you can customize your calendar settings. Click on the three horizontal lines in the top left corner of the screen, then select “Settings.” Under the “General” tab, scroll down to the “Holidays” section and uncheck the boxes for the holidays you want to remove. Click “Save” to apply the changes.
Step 7: Sync Your Calendar
If you use multiple devices, make sure to sync your Google Calendar to ensure the changes are reflected across all your devices. On your mobile device, open the Google Calendar app, go to the menu, and select “Settings.” Under the “General” tab, tap “Sync now” to sync your calendar.
