Choosing a 2024 calendar is much like picking out a new piece of wall art—you’ll want to opt for something you won’t tire of looking at, day in and day out. Luckily there are lots of design-y options on the market this time of year, from wood perpetual calendars (i.e. calendars you can reuse every year) to stylish flip clocks to full-size posters fit for the fridge. Ahead you’ll find 12 of our favorite calendars for charting out the new year.
Poketo Spectrum Wall Planner
Poketo’s best-selling poster-size wall calendar isn’t dated, so you can start using it any time. (And if you use a pencil, it’s technically reusable.) Each single-page month features a new graphic color designed to look good on its own or when displayed side-by-side.

Ugly Dogs in Medieval and Renaissance Paintings 2024 Monthly Calendar
Much to modern delight, medieval and Renaissance artists just could not paint normal-looking dogs. This wall calendar features some of the greatest artistic failures of the time period, resulting in a surprisingly tasteful flip-book offering up a new ugly (yet dignified!) dog to covet each month.

JSTORY Large Monthly Planner
Keep track of your important dates with this oversized weekly calendar, an Amazon-reviewer favorite. “It lays flat [and the] pages are thick with no bleed through,” one such reviewer writes, and it has “a generous 17 months, which is great for overlap with the next year.” Note that it only contains the days of the week, so you’ll have to write in the months, dates, and holiday observances (like Mother’s Day and Valentine’s Day) yourself.
