October 2027 calendar

October 2027 runs from a Friday the 1st to a Sunday the 31st, and this sheet holds all of it at the true size of the paper, Letter or A4, one month per page, with the October 11 federal holiday marked in its cell. Preview it, press print at 100% scale, and the grid comes out at the size shown.

Holidays in October 2027

The list below is computed from the federal holiday rules by the same code that marks the grid above, so the two cannot drift apart. October 2027 has one federal entry, the Monday whose name varies by state, shown under its federal name, and one observance at the very end of the month. Federal days get a mark in the grid; observances appear in the list only.

How this October 2027 page works

Monday, October 11 is labeled Columbus Day in the grid, using the federal designation. The list below also notes Indigenous Peoples' Day, observed by many states and cities. Halloween falls on Sunday the 31st and is listed below the sheet with no federal holiday mark. The Week rows readout above the sheet shows 6 rows for the default Sunday start and 5 rows once you switch to Monday. Every other month from September 2026 to December 2028 is linked at the foot of the page.

The preview is an SVG whose coordinate system is millimeters: the Letter layout is drawn on a 215.9 by 279.4 mm canvas and the A4 layout on 210 by 297, and the print stylesheet gives your dialog that same page size, so nothing gets rescaled between screen and paper. The browser itself renders the sheet, and if you choose Save as PDF it writes the file too; no server draws anything. The dates are computed: the script finds that October 2027 opens on a Friday and lays 31 cells across the rows that follow. The holiday mark on Monday the 11th comes from the federal rule that defines the day, the second Monday of October, so you can check it yourself.

There are no week numbers and no moon phases, and non-federal observances stay out of the grid cells, so October 31 prints as blank as any other Sunday and Halloween is noted in the list below. Two options change the sheet's shape. Coloring top fits the grid into the lower part of the page and frames an empty panel above it, so a child can draw the month. Monday start rebuilds the rows so the weekend sits together at the right edge, which cuts October 2027 from six week rows to five.

Frequently asked questions

Is October 11, 2027 Columbus Day or Indigenous Peoples' Day?
Both, depending on where you live. Federal law names the holiday Columbus Day, so that is what the cell for Monday, October 11 carries. The listing under the sheet includes the second name as well, since a number of states keep the same Monday as Indigenous Peoples' Day. If yours is one of them, the cell has room to relabel it by hand: the mark flags the federal holiday, and the name your community uses is yours to write in.
Is Halloween marked on the October 2027 calendar?
Not in the grid. Halloween falls on Sunday, October 31, 2027. It is an observance, and this page marks only days defined by federal statute, so its cell prints empty. It does appear in the computed list under the sheet, next to the federal entry. The empty last square is useful anyway: it takes a pumpkin doodle or a party time better than a preprinted label would.
Why does the October 2027 calendar have six rows?
Because of how the days land. In the default Sunday-through-Saturday layout, October 1, 2027 falls on a Friday, so the first row holds just two days, the 1st and 2nd. Four full weeks follow, carrying the count to the 30th, and the 31st spills into a sixth row by itself. That last cell, alone on its line, is Halloween's. With six rows each cell is a little shorter than in a five-row month.
Is there a coloring version of the October 2027 calendar?
Yes. Choose Coloring top and the same computed October grid moves toward the bottom of the sheet, with a framed blank panel filling the space above. A child draws October in the panel (most take the obvious route this month) while the dates below stay accurate and usable, so the page does calendar work on the fridge for 31 days and gets kept afterward. It prints on Letter or A4 like the standard layout, with the holiday mark still in place.
Does the October 2027 calendar print at actual size on A4?
Yes. Choose A4 and the grid is redrawn for a 210 by 297 mm page, and the print dialog is told that exact size. Check two settings before you print: the paper size in the dialog should match what is in the tray, and scale should read Actual size. A shrink-to-fit option reduces every dimension on the sheet, margins included, without saying so.
