Hi, we've started working on an experimental Zmanim iCalendar feed. We'd love your feedback.
The basic format of the feeds is this:
webcal://download.hebcal.com/zmanim?zip=02906
You can specify the location using the same parameters described on this page

Please share your feedback with us!

I am unable to download a PDF version of the 5781 calender. I had no problems in the previous years.

Hi, thanks for using Hebcal. Sorry to hear you're having difficulty. Can you share a URL or a screenshot of what's not working?
You can find a 5781 PDF here:

And you can generate your own options here, choose "Create Calendar" and then choose "Print" when you get the results page.

Rosh Hashanah LaBehema
Can Rosh Hashanah LaBehema (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rosh_Hashanah_LaBehema) be added to the calendar? I previously wasn't aware that there were 4 Rosh Hashanot observed, and this holiday has been experiencing a resurgence in observance, besides the fact that it's pretty cool. It's the first of Elul. A lot of people use Hebcal and having it added also would increase its awareness.

Hi, thanks again for this suggestion. We've implemented this feature.

Rosh Hashana LaBehemot (New Year for Tithing Animals) begins at sundown on Sun, 8 August 2021.

Thanks for your patience. Fast start and end times are now provided for major fast (Tish’a B’Av) and minor fasts (Ta’anit Esther, Tzom Gedaliah, Tzom Tammuz, Asara B’Tevet, & Ta’anit Bechorot). Minor fasts begin at alot hashachar (when the sun is 16.1° below the horizon in the morning) and end when 3 medium-sized stars are observable in the night sky (when the sun is 7.083° below the horizon in the evening). Tish’a B’Av fast begins at sundown and ends when 3 medium-sized stars are observable.

Hi, thanks for using Hebcal!
Rosh Hashana occurs on the first of Tishrei (September 18 at sundown) but we don't call this Rosh chodesh Tishrei.

Shabbat Shuva -- Torah reading
Are the Torah readings for Shabbat Shuva (and similar occasions) available on the Hebcal website. I have the Cohen luach, but I'd rather cut and paste!

Hi, thanks for using Hebcal!
Torah readings for Shabbat Shuva and similar occasions are indeed available. For example:
https://www.hebcal.com/holidays/shabbat-shuva-2020
You'll find the entire year's holidays here, and Torah & Haftarah readings are on individual pages.

If you are a leyning coordinator for your shul, you might also enjoy our spreadsheets that have aliyot-by-aliyot breakdown for both Shabbat and holidays:

The 7th month, is it Ethanim or Tishrei. Are they same?
According to 1 Kings 8 verse 2, the 7th month is Ethanim but on your website it is Tishrei. Are they same?
