The latter is true when you do not have customised '(view-calendar-holidays-initially t) (although there might be some interference with diary), for the former you need to overwrite the holidays lists, general-holidays, local-holidays, christian-holidays (or whatever you need), and in the end record: (setq calendar-holidays (append general-holidays local-holidays christian-holidays solar-holidays) ) ; other-holidays ? (setq calendar-week-start-day 1) (setq european-calendar-style t) (setq calendar-date-style 'european) Much, if not all, can be done via the customisation interface.
