Custom holidays not repeating

Is anyone else having calendar issues? Custom holidays won’t repeat every year for me.

For example, if I create a holiday on the first day of summer and play for a week, the first day of summer on the next year is blank. My seasons are set to 2 weeks.

I spent hours planning out custom holidays and to see they aren’t repeating is a huge issue in my game.

Thanks in advance!
  • Not sure if you are having this problem, but I also have the 2 weeks setting and the very last week in the calendar is not editable. If I make a holiday on the last week, it won't appear. But once that week because the second to the last week, the holidays will appear. So that might be the issue. They do repeat, it's just that you can't see them.
  • So, the holidays don't appear so far in advance

    Are they not showing on the calendar as repeating after the first holiday is over or are you actually getting to the day the holiday should be and it doesn't happen? Mine haven't shown up either, but I've not played a full seasonal year, I thought maybe they wouldn't appear until I got closer to the time for them? Does anyone know how it is suppose to work?


    I've only played for about 10 Sim days and when I noticed the holidays weren't appearing 'next year' on the calendar I started a new save without mods, and with the latest patch, to test it and still get the same results.

    So, maybe holidays don't actually appear on the calendar until the day is getting closer? Kinda strange but hopefully if I continue to play they will start to appear? Can anyone clarify this?

    Thanks for responding, everyone. :)
  • Have you played through the entire summer? When it became the first day of autumn for me, the holidays reappeared on the calendar.

    If you can't see your first summer week's holidays appearing, wait until fall starts.
    I have also set my game (it turned out for me the seasons setting are different for every save) to 2 week seasons. I have discovered that if you put the holidays on the first week, then on the second week it won't show up. When the second week ends and the season changes, the holidays will appear on both of the weeks and will repeat (unless it's a surprise holiday randomly created by game).

  • Do you have mods? Take them out and try again. I know MCCC is bugging some games :smiley:

    I tested with a new save and no mods, same results. :(
