The following festivals have no fixed date in the Gregorian calendar, and may be aligned with moon cycles or other calendars.

Many religions whose holidays were formulated before the worldwide spread of the Gregorian calendar have been assigned to dates according to either their own internal religious calendar, moon cycles, or otherwise.
