Although a bit late, I have created the calendar of the main astronomical events of the year so that it can be used to plan observation nights in advance.

This year, I didn’t copy the events by hand but used an AI (Claude by Anthropic) to compile two calendars available online:

1. Astronomical Calendar 2026: Best Events, Star Walk.
2. Astronomical Events of 2026, UAI.

The result is this:

 

Some notes on its use:

• When using it, you can choose between three different views: monthly, weekly, or table (agenda).
• You can add this calendar to your own by clicking on Add to Google Calendar.
• Clicking on the event allows you to view its detailed card.
• Within the detail card, if it is an event from Star Walk, there is a link to a further detailed sheet.
• If you need the source file, just click on this link: eventi_astronomici_2026_finale.ics.
• If you choose to import the .ics file, remember that to add it to a new calendar, you must first create the new calendar and select it as the recipient of the events during the import phase.

That’s it.

Happy observing everyone.
