March 2027 social media calendar for small businesses
March 2027 is Women's History Month, with International Women's Day on Monday, March 8. Daylight saving time begins in most of the US on the second Sunday in March, Saint Patrick's Day falls on Wednesday, March 17 and Easter Sunday is March 28. Plan spring hours and holiday bookings early, because the busiest weekends arrive close together.
Updated
March is when businesses switch to spring: new hours once the clocks change in most states, new menus, new services and the first holiday weekends of the year. Easter comes early in 2027, on March 28, so anything tied to it needs planning in the first half of the month.
Each day below links to the source that confirms it, and anything we could not check is left out.
Pick what fits. Women's History Month and International Women's Day suit a sincere post about the women on your team or the women-owned businesses you buy from. Saint Patrick's Day suits a playful special. Purim and Easter suit preorders for bakeries and brunch bookings for restaurants. Every day lists the businesses it suits and sample post ideas, and the month comes as a CSV too.
