Dunno, but (info "(emacs) Fancy Diary Display") says:
| You can write ‘comments’ in diary entries, by setting the variables
| ‘diary-comment-start’ and ‘diary-comment-end’ to strings that delimit
| comments.
Can you try that?
Michael.

That you can e.g.
(setq diary-comment-start "{")
(setq diary-comment-end "}")
and then everything in a diary file enclosed in {...} should be treated
as a comment. Does that answer your question?
Michael.

I have found this command that uses the warning colour. Can one use other colours
for block entries?
%%(diary-lunar-phases 'warning)

You should be able to specify a (different) face as last argument to
`diary-block' just as for `(diary-lunar-phases 'warning)' above.
