​Bahá’í Calendar and Holy Days

The ​Bahá’í Faith has its own calendar, called the Badí Calendar. It is a solar calendar consisting of 19 months of 19 days each (361 days), plus “Intercalary Days” (four in ordinary years and five in leap years) to adjust the calendar to the solar year. The days and months are named after the attributes of God. The Nineteen Day Feast, the primary community gathering for ​Bahá’ís in each town and city, is held on the first day of each ​Bahá’í month. Eleven Holy Days mark significant events in ​Bahá’í history.
