Looking for social media holidays?
I find them essential for spicing up my content marketing. Everyone loves a holiday!
Christmas, Thanksgiving, Black Friday, the Oscars, and the Super Bowl are core holidays that resonate with most audiences.
Then toss in a couple quirky and fun events, so you can surprise your audience with unusual promotional campaigns.
In this article, you’ll learn:
- The BEST social media holidays for 2025-26.
- How to use holiday marketing to build brand awareness.
- How to create your holiday marketing strategy.
- How to get ready-to-post content for your social platforms!
You’ll find the top holidays on colorful infographics, AND find links to more seasonal marketing ideas and quotes.
There you can download a FREE printable social media holiday calendar each month, with daily ideas.
Lots to learn, so let’s get going!
Why Use Holiday Marketing?
If you’ve ever struggled with what to post on your social media channels, you’ll find that these holidays inspire popular posts!
Few people will “like” a post about your product or blog post, but nearly everyone who sees a post saying Happy New Year will give it a “like.”
With a cool graphic, they might even share it!
Due to social media algorithms, this engagement is crucial to your social media success. Posts that don’t get immediate engagement are not shown to many of your followers on virtually every social platform. The algorithms think they’re boring.
Don’t be boring!
Not only are holiday posts successful – they’re a great way for your followers to associate positive feelings with your business.
So lets have some fun while we make your followers smile!
Creating a Social Media Holiday Strategy
Some business owners can jump into almost every holiday out there. Food bloggers, for example, can use the hundreds of holidays each year for different foods.
But for most of us, it’s worth taking a moment to make sure that the holiday is relevant to our target audience.
For example, it might seem a bit weird for a baby nursery to celebrate a gardening holiday. Wrong type of nursery!
Choose the relevant holidays and hashtags
When building your strategy, go through each month and pick the holidays and their hashtags that make the most sense for your business.
Popular hashtags can build a relationship with your customers. But they need to be the right ones. Don’t send out loads of posts around social media holidays just to fill your content calendar.
Understand what the holiday is about
Once you have a shortlist of holidays to use, do a little research into them.
- What’s the background?
- Does it mean what it sounds like it means?
- Are there any negative associations that you don’t want tied up with your brand?
Also refer to your social media strategy and if the holiday can help.
Does it help get more followers? Build relationships? Network with other businesses?
If it ticks the boxes, it can move to your social media campaign plan.
Check to see if it works
Once you’ve been following a plan for social media holidays for a quarter or even six months, take a good look at the posts.
Do they get the engagement or reactions that you were aiming for? Do people comment or share them?
Use the analytics information to help you decide what to do going forward.
Look at social media holidays differently
Before diving into the dates, here’s one more thing to consider. Don’t always see social media holidays as just a way to post engaging content.
Depending on the holiday, it can be a good time to run a promotion, offer a discount code, or to launch a special bundle. Especially the small business or entrepreneur holidays.
Just be sensitive to other holidays that have a deeper meaning and that aren’t commercial at all.

It’s coming next week!
Jolene says
Hi, Louise I’m trying to craft some content for my LinkedIn page. I love your social media holidays, may I share your calendar from April to December on my page? I will of coz give credits to you in my post.
Louise Myers says
I’d love for you to share a link to the post. Unfortunately I can’t allow use of my images.

Outside of the USA, my biggest audience is Canadians. I would never include July 4th without also adding Canada Day to my calendar! Aside from that, this is a fantastic resource and huge props for sharing, thank you!!
Louise Myers says
I agree. I definitely have Canada Day on the July ideas page. This page is really just a brief overview and hub for the monthly pages 🙂
Tammy says
Louise this is fantastic! For years I have created a promotions and marketing calendar for our company, Organic Excellence, and this is by FAR the best list of Promo dates put in one convenient location for the year! I have read your other posts and am very impressed with all that you do and share. THANK YOU!!! You are a vast help to all of us out there trying to keep up. I love the links others have provided as well to help jump start the Cyber Monday sales too! Thanks everyone!
Louise Myers says
I’m so glad you like it, Tammy!
Barbara Woodman says
Omg thank you thank you! A calendar like this is actually what I was needing and totally on point, I’ll make sure to print it and put it right in front of my desk! I plan to officially announce my store opening a couple of days before Halloween and was looking for ideas that I can be capable of materializing by myself. With black friday and thanksgiving coming is going to be cray cray. Apart from social media, do you think timely newsletters could work? Especially for black friday I plan to at least use some of the advice here mailerlite.com/blog/black-friday-cyber-monday-email-marketing-checklist like a countdown timer + GIFs, and offer mystery sales as suggested here blog.fivestars.com/boost-your-black-friday-sales-with-these-5-promotion-ideas/ but then again, not sure if it’d be too soon for me after just opening a store (I sell hand-made jewelry and journals) either way I’ll try to create my own memes for Halloween so i’ll shamelessly copy some of your quotes if that’s ok 😀
Louise Myers says
If you have a mailing list, then you should definitely alert them to your store opening and sales, IF it’s relevant to why they joined your list.
Best of luck!
