Hello, everyone. This is Ignacio Agulló, and since the year 2011 I maintain the Information and Communication Technologies’ Celebrations Calendar for professionals. The calendar registers all of the editions for a total of 19 yearly Celebrations, beginning in 1969 - with some celebrations already extinct by now. The Calendar only registers the celebrations, not the many ICT events created for them.
The Calendar is published through the Google Calendar application in formats iCal and HTML. This allows for subscribing to the Calendar from most agenda and e-mail applications, and also view the calendar as a web page or insert it in one. The calendar is available in English, Spanish and Galician, with small differences depending of the places and languages of the Celebrations. Because of many celebrations changing dates or delaying their announcements until mere days before, subscribing to the calendar is the best choice to avoid being surprised by unexpected date changes. If you are a subscriber from before 2020, please notice that the original Calendar is abandoned for the new one, so you'll need to subscribe again.
