September 2026 calendar
September 2026 fills five week rows, opening on a Tuesday and closing on a Wednesday. This page prints the month at the true size of your paper, Letter or A4, with Labor Day marked in its cell on Monday the 7th. It is the sheet that goes up when the school year starts and the summer improvisation ends.
Holidays in September 2026
The list below is worked out from the federal holiday rules for September 2026's own weekdays, with nothing carried over from another year's table. A federal holiday is also marked inside its grid cell; observances, when a month has them, appear in the list only, so the printed cells stay clear. September has one federal date this year, and it lands on a Monday, so no observed-day substitution applies.

How this September 2026 page works
September 2026 opens on a Tuesday and has 30 days. Both week-start options use five rows. Labor Day is marked on Monday the 7th. The coloring-top layout leaves a blank framed panel above the grid for a drawing.
The sheet is an SVG whose units are real millimeters. When the print dialog opens, the page gives it the dimensions of Letter or A4 paper, and the browser prints the grid at that size; choose Save as PDF in the same dialog and the browser writes the file itself. The dates are computed: the code finds that the month opens on a Tuesday, counts out 30 days and places each one in turn, five week rows deep. Labor Day is in its cell because the first-Monday rule lands on the 7th this year.
The sheet has no week numbers along the edge and no lunar phases in the corners; some planners want them and others find them clutter. Non-federal observances go in the list below the sheet and are left unmarked in the cells, so every mark in the grid is a federal holiday. If your week runs Monday to Sunday, the Monday-start option rebuilds the grid, and this month still needs five rows, so the grid keeps the same row height. In the print dialog, set the scale to 100% or Actual size; a fit-to-page setting shrinks the grid, and the printout then no longer matches the preview.
Frequently asked questions
What day of the week is Labor Day in 2026?
Labor Day 2026 falls on Monday, September 7, and it is the only federal holiday in the month. The rule is the first Monday in September, so the date moves from year to year, and this page computes it from that rule. A Monday holiday never shifts, so the federal observed date is the same day. On the sheet the 7th carries the holiday mark inside its cell, which puts a three-day weekend at the end of the month's first full week.
What day does September 2026 start on?
Tuesday. September 1, 2026 is a Tuesday, and the month ends on Wednesday, September 30. That gives five week rows whether the week begins on Sunday or on Monday, so the grid is the same height either way. On a Sunday-start grid the first row carries only five dated cells, which leaves a little more white space at the top of the sheet than a month that opens on a Sunday.
How many days are in September 2026?
Thirty. September has thirty days every year, and in 2026 they run from Tuesday the 1st through Wednesday the 30th. The grid is built by counting those thirty days out from the opening weekday, so the layout changes from year to year even though the length stays the same: September 2025 opened on a Monday, and September 2027 opens on a Wednesday.
Is there a September 2026 calendar kids can color?
Yes. Set Layout to Coloring top: the date grid moves into the lower part of the page, and a blank framed panel above it leaves room for a drawing. The same computed dates fill the cells, so the sheet still works as a calendar after it has been coloured. The panel prints as a thin outline with nothing inside it, which keeps ink use low.
Will the September 2026 calendar print at the right size on A4?
Yes. The sheet is drawn in real millimeters, and choosing A4 redraws the grid for A4 paper and passes that paper size to the print dialog, so nothing has to be shrunk to fit. The one setting that matters is scale: leave it at 100 percent, and turn off any fit-to-page option your printer driver adds. To check the print with a ruler, measure from the left or right edge of the paper to the grid's outer line; it should be 12.7 mm.
