What comes with the Social Media Content Calendar?

I’ve included the following in this post with the 2025 Social Media Content Calendar:

Why use Social Media Holidays?

Creating and curating content can be hard. It’s relentless and sometimes you need a little lighthearted content to boost engagement. Let’s face it, we all love quotes, images and videos around special days throughout the year. It’s content that wins, again and again.

So make sure you include some social media holidays in your content and use our content calendar “infographic” to help remind you, then click through any time to see the full list on this 2025 Social Media Content Calendar.

Our 2025 Social Media Content Calendar Infographic is ready for you to save and use.

It contains 12 months of sneak-preview dates for this entire post and the 12 blog posts we link to below containing Canva templates. Save it or pin it for later!

How to use the 2025 Social Media Holidays Content Calendar:

Here are a few ways you can use the ideas on the infographic or in the list below:

2. Create a short video around the social media holiday. Is it Pizza Day? Maybe make a short video with some pizza fun facts. Use my favourite video tools, Canva or Wave to help you. Find out more about Canva video here.
3. Create a fun GIF to celebrate the holiday you are sharing. Use one of my favourite GIF creation tools, Giphy to create a GIF.
4. Create an email-based around a social media holiday theme – ie St Patrick’s Day or Mother’s Day. Send your subscribers a special deal for those holidays.
5. Create an offer on social media that you can share with your audience.

You are only really limited to your imagination when you use the 2025 Social Media Content Calendar!
