About this calendar

Fed FOMC Meeting Calendar tracks the Federal Open Market Committee’s policy timetable, covering meeting days, rate decisions, press conferences, and minutes releases from the official Federal Reserve schedule. The feed reflects the institutional structure of the FOMC cycle in Washington, with two meeting days, a 14:00 Eastern Time decision on the second day, and minutes published after the customary delay that follows each policy round. The calendar is built around the sequence of a central-bank meeting rather than around a single announcement. Day 1 and Day 2 appear separately, the policy statement anchors the second day, and meetings that include the Summary of Economic Projections add an extended press-conference window to the schedule. That structure is important because the FOMC communicates through a set of linked events: the decision itself, the chair’s remarks, and the later release of minutes that provide more detail on the committee’s discussion of inflation, labour-market conditions, growth, and financial stability. The result is a policy calendar that serves economists, traders, reporters, and treasury teams following the Federal Reserve’s recurring decision cycle rather than isolated headline moments. It also separates formal meeting milestones from the steady flow of speeches and interviews that surround US monetary policy. The Smart Calendar Feed is free to subscribe and can be added to Apple Calendar, Google Calendar, or Outlook, keeping the FOMC timetable visible beside earnings, economic releases, and internal briefing schedules without manual entry. That makes it easier to monitor decision days, press conferences, and minutes windows inside the same calendar workflow used for broader market planning. The calendar updates regularly so meeting changes, postponed releases, and schedule adjustments from the Federal Reserve appear automatically. For anyone following the cadence of US monetary policy, the feed provides an evergreen reference for the recurring structure of the FOMC calendar across the year. That is particularly useful when minutes releases and projection meetings need to be tracked alongside the wider macro calendar rather than as stand-alone policy headlines.
