# Your 2019 Marketing Calendar is Here

SDS is releasing it's 2019 marketing calendar for you to download and import into Outlook or Mac's Calendar app! Filled with the essential events like Easter & Christmas, you'll also find whimsical dates such as National Burger Day - perfect for those in hospitality related businesses. 

This calendar covers everything from major sporting events, school holidays for NSW & QLD to all-important food dates like World Chocolate Day - which can be very helpful for generating social media content in a pinch. 

A reminder is set to pop up 120 days before these events:

- Australia Day (26 Jan) 
- Good Friday (19 Apr)
- Mother's Day (12 May)
- Father's Day (1 Sep)
- Christmas Day (25 Dec)
- New Year's Eve (31 Dec)

Feel free to go in and customise the reminders, or even turn them off. We have found at SDS it's been helpful to have a reminder prompting us to start planning well before these big events hit! 

Some events also repeat yearly such as Australia Day, so you won't have to fill that in again next year.
