November 2026 calendar printable — a month that opens with a 25-hour day

The calendar below is set to November 2026 already. Adjust it and print, or take the PDF. Everything stated here about the month — the row counts, the weekday totals, the ISO weeks, the holiday dates and the clock change — is computed, not typed in by hand.

The clock change lands on the 1st

US daylight saving time ends on Sunday, November 1, 2026, which in 2026 is the very first day of the month. Since the Energy Policy Act took effect in 2007 the rule has been the first Sunday in November, and this year that Sunday is November 1 — so the month begins with a 25-hour day in every state that observes the change. Arizona outside the Navajo Nation, and Hawaii, do not observe it at all and simply have a normal Sunday.

That is legislation rather than astronomy, which is why the date is stated flatly here with no hedging, unlike an equinox instant. Practically, it means anything you schedule for early on the 1st happens an hour later in daylight terms than the week before, and clocks that do not update themselves will be an hour fast until somebody fixes them.

The only month here that grows a row on a Monday start

November 2026 has 30 days, begins on a Sunday and ends on a Monday. With a Sunday start the grid needs 5 rows, because the 1st sits in the very first cell and nothing spills at the front. Move the week start to Monday and it needs 6: the 1st is pushed to the last column of the opening row, and the 30th is pushed past cell thirty-five. Saturday start brings it back to 5.

So this is the month where the week-start control is a print decision, not a preference. Six rows means every day box is about a sixth shorter, and if you are printing this alongside October or December — both five-row months on a Monday start — the sheets will not match. Sunday start keeps the set consistent; Monday start keeps ISO week numbers meaningful. Pick one on purpose. If ISO weeks are what you are after, the Monday-start layout explains what the numbering buys you.

6 ISO week numbers, and 21 working days

The month spans ISO weeks 44 through 49 of 2026 — 6 week numbers touched by 30 days, which is the widest span of any month in this set. Week 44 contributes only the 1st and week 49 only the 30th; the four weeks in between are wholly inside the month.

There are 21 weekdays and 9 weekend days. That 21 is the lowest weekday count of the autumn, and it is before you subtract the two federal holidays below — so a working month of 21 days is really 19 for anyone who takes them. Worth knowing if this sheet is going on a wall to plan a quarter-end.

Two federal holidays, neither of them shifted

Veterans Day is fixed to November 11 and falls on a Wednesday in 2026, so it stays put: Wednesday, November 11, 2026. Fixed-date holidays are the ones that can move — a Saturday November 11 would be observed on the Friday — but this year no shift applies.

Thanksgiving Day is Thursday, November 26, 2026. The statute says the fourth Thursday in November, not the last, and the distinction is real in years where the month has five Thursdays. November 2026 has 4, so this year the fourth Thursday and the last Thursday are the same date — which is exactly the sort of coincidence that lets a hard-coded holiday table look correct for a while and then quietly go wrong.

Printing this month

If you print with the default Sunday start you get a 5-row sheet that sits comfortably on portrait Letter. If you need the Monday start, consider landscape: a 6-row grid in landscape has wider cells, which compensates for the lost height. Turning on the notes column is worth it in a month with two holidays and a long Thanksgiving weekend to plan around. See the printing guide for scale and margin settings.
