Put these dates in your phone
Add it once. Every festival then shows up in the calendar on your phone.
Every festival shows up in the calendar you already use. If a date changes, it updates on its own. Nothing to sign up for.
We check these dates by hand. When a festival falls on different days in different states, we list the earlier one and say so in the note. Tithi and nakshatra timings are coming later.
