How do I remove certain holidays from my calendar (but not all us holidays)?

Thank you, Barney. I’m unfamiliar with the language in this standard. Does it say somewhere that users can’t be allowed to delete individual holidays if they choose? If so, can you please point me to that section? Thanks.

Sorry, I'm not going to waste my time reading it for you.

The Holidays calendar is a Subscribed calendar meaning it is hosted someplace other than your computer. It is subscribed to by millions of people, all at the same time. If you were able to delete an event from that subscribed calendar, you would be deleting the event from everyone's calendar.

If you want you own Holiday calendar that has the events you want, build it yourself on your Mac.

Sorry - since you referenced the standard in the context of my question, I thought maybe you knew the specific requirement that prevents users from making changes. On looking at the standard, it appears that Section 8.3 would allow the use of a “lock” to prevent changes made by one user from affecting others. Am I reading that correctly?

No need to be condescending. Barney referenced the standard in the context of my question so I assumed he knew the specific requirement that prevents users from making changes. Section 8.3 implies that a lock can be used to prevent changes made by one user from affecting others.

Great... but I cannot find it to unsubscribe from it. Where is tthe subscription found??! I’ve looked under iTunes, iCal, Apple ID, etc.

Right click on the calendar in the sidebar and select "unsubscribe".

How has Apple restricted your freedom? As above, subscribe to whichever calendar meets your needs ........... there are thousands available.

Please read the replies above. No one has suggested using a different app.

Look in Calendar's Preferences.

You can not edit a subscribed calendar. There is no reason to use another App, simply subscribe to a calendar that meets your needs.

Okay, your condescending tone would be fine if it were actually helpful. But it’s not. Seeing as how I still can’t even delete ALL the holidays from my cal

I did, and iCal links don’t work from my phone. So I’ll have to do in. But I really do appreciate everyone’s time!!

You have to download a different calendar.

This one shows only American holidays instead of the ones from other countries.

Yes, we've already explained that.

Please provide a reference to this standard. Thanks.
