Product Description

"The definitive guide to all holidays and anniversaries." --Wall Street Journal

"In its diversity and inclusiveness, [Chase's] is an exhaustive guide to the country's ideals and passions." --Washington Post

For almost 50 years, Chase's Calendar of Events has been the most trusted and comprehensive reference to just what's going on today. Whether it's an important historical anniversary, the phases of the moon, a sports event, the birthday of a favorite celebrity, a festival, or much, much more, Chase's has all the answers. This indispensable resource is perfect for people who need to be "in the know," such as:

  • Event planners
  • Broadcasters
  • Librarians
  • Advertisers . . . and others

Whether it's Valentine's Day (February 14) or National Underwear Day (August 13), American Heart Month (February) or International Accordian Awareness Month (June), Chase's covers traditional and whimsical observances of all kinds: holidays, anniversaries, sporting events, astronomical phenomena, and more. In all, it has more than 12,000 entries. There is never a boring day in Chase's!

Also available with a CD-ROM that allows you to customize searches by date, subject, location, and many other ways!

5.0 out of 5 stars Great book but too pricey..., October 20, 2004
This is a great book if you need to know what's happening in the world, but who has $65 to sink into a calendar of events book? The price is insane. Hey, Chases... I think it's time you lowered the price!

4.0 out of 5 stars Not just a calendar, but a great source of ideas, November 30, 2005
This isn't just another guide to holidays and anniversaries. Chase's list is extensive, making this an indispensable resource for event planners, activity directors, advertising, and media professionals. As a former librarian working in advertising and marketing, I found this publication to be a popular source for creative ideas for special events, and for brainstorming in a team environment when everyone is stuck on doing the same old thing. I recently recommended this title to the events planner where I currently work. The price may seem high, but considering the volume of information, and the inclusion of a CD-Rom, this book is less expensive than many other directories.
