A calendar in a setting helps to establish a feel and pace of a game. A good means to time-keep a character's adventure as well as track the current season and weather.
But a more looked over thing that a calender provides is a time-table of special events and holidays. More common holidays are seasonal celebrations, like the spring and fall equinox, but all national holidays and celebrations. Besides adding spice to the setting, it also allows a GM to use special days into the campaign as well allows characters to interact with the world around them.
A calender is something I often keep in mind when it comes to planning a campaign, and often figuring what season to start the adventure is often the first question I ask myself.
