Put meetings on pause during major holidays without having to think about it.

What if a holiday is missing?
If there is a holiday you observe that is not within your Holidays tab or you are looking to block off additional dates within Calendly, you can add add date-specific hours to your Calendly schedule or you can add an all-day busy event to your connected calendar. Within your connected calendar, you can create busy events to remove availability for vacations and time off.
