Event Weather Planner
Find out how reliable the weather has been on a specific date — and how likely it is to be good weather for your outdoor event.
Enter your event date and location. WeatherRecall looks up the weather for that exact date over the past 10 years and calculates a reliability score, so you can make an informed decision when planning weddings, festivals, sports days, garden parties, and any outdoor event.
How the reliability score works
Score: Excellent (80–100%)
8 out of 10 years had a weather score of 7 or above (sunny to partly cloudy). This date has a strong track record for good weather at this location.
Score: Good (60–79%)
Around 6–7 out of 10 years were pleasant. There's a reasonable chance of good weather, though some years may have been overcast or had light rain.
Score: Mixed (40–59%)
Roughly half the years had good weather and half had mixed or poor conditions. Consider having a backup plan.
Score: Poor (below 40%)
Fewer than 4 out of 10 years had good weather on this date. There's a significant historical risk of rain, cloud, or cold temperatures.
Best dates for outdoor events
Historical weather data shows clear seasonal patterns that can guide your event planning. Here are some general insights for popular regions:
Western Europe (UK, Netherlands, Belgium)
Late June to mid-July typically offers the most reliable sunny weather. August can be unpredictable. May and early June are often good but with a higher chance of afternoon showers.
Southern Europe (Spain, Italy, Greece)
May, June, and September are ideal — avoiding the extreme July/August heat while still getting reliably dry, sunny conditions. October is often excellent in Mediterranean areas.
North America (East Coast)
Late May through June and September offer a good balance of warmth without the humidity of July/August. October is popular for fall outdoor events.
Australia
March to May (autumn) and September to November (spring) are the most reliable for outdoor events across most of Australia, avoiding both summer heat and winter rainfall.
