Apple Calendar on a Mac
This browser cannot pass the calendar to Apple Calendar by itself. Add it in the Calendar app instead, it takes a minute:
- Open Calendar and choose File → New Calendar Subscription.
- Paste this address and click Subscribe:
- Set Auto-refresh to Every week and click OK.
On an iPhone or iPad, open this page there and tap Apple Calendar: the phone offers to subscribe by itself.
Apple Calendar
Apple Calendar lives on iPhone, iPad and Mac. On this phone, use the Google Calendar button above: the calendar then syncs to the Google Calendar app.
Free, no sign-up and no email. Download the file instead for a one-time import: it will not update itself.

Questions
Does the calendar update itself?
Yes. It is a subscription, not a one-off import: your calendar app checks the file every few days, and each new year is added as it comes. Right now it runs through 2028.
Which time zone are the times in?
Your own. Each phase is stored as an exact moment in UTC, and the calendar app shows it in the time zone your phone or computer is set to, so a full moon at 20:47 UTC appears at 4:47 PM in New York and 1:47 PM in Los Angeles.
Why can I not add it from the Google Calendar app on Android?
The Android app has no option to subscribe by address. Open Google Calendar in a browser once (the button above does that), add the calendar there, and it syncs to the app on your phone.
How do I remove it?
On iPhone: Settings, Calendar, Accounts, Subscribed Calendars, then delete it. In Google Calendar: open Settings, find the calendar under Other calendars and choose Unsubscribe. In Outlook: right-click the calendar and remove it.
Is there a paper version?
Yes, a one-page printable calendar for each year, with the Moon for every day and the phase times. Printable moon calendar 2027 →
