Distributed across India with particular emphasis on the northern states, thousands of copies will reach printers, publishers, and packaging experts, empowering them to navigate the year's opportunities with precision.

The Offset Printers Association (OPA) unveiled its OPA Calendar 2026 during its annual general meeting held on 21 December 2025 – its 20th edition since its inception in 2007.

Presenting the calendar to industry leaders, printing industry veteran Kamal Mohan Chopra said the OPA Calendar 2026 is far more than a simple planner listing festivals and holidays. 

“It serves as an indispensable resource for professionals in the printing and packaging industry, featuring curated details on national and international events, exhibitions, and trade shows. It incorporates insights from the local traditional calendar, functioning much like a printer’s almanac—offering a holistic view that blends cultural heritage with professional foresight,” he said.

Hailed as a ‘Printer’s Jantri’ within the community, the calendar has evolved into an eagerly awaited staple, fostering knowledge-sharing and strategic planning among members. Distributed across India with particular emphasis on the northern states, thousands of copies will reach printers, publishers, and packaging experts, empowering them to navigate the year’s opportunities with precision.

The OPA Calendar, the association says,  underscores its commitment to innovation and community building in the dynamic printing landscape.
