# Public holidays

**Team settings** > **Regional** is where you define **regions** and their public holidays. A region can then be assigned to sites, staff and resources, so each one's availability reflects local holidays.

1. Click **Add region** and name it (for example *Berlin*).
2. With the region selected, click **Add year** and add that year's public holidays.
3. You can import the list of public holidays from our database automatically one year in advance, or add them manually.
4. Assign the region on a site, staff member or resource via the *public-holiday region* field on its page.

note

Add each upcoming year in advance, and review the dates — some public holidays move from year to year. Also, some cities or states have their own public holidays, so check the list for your region.
