Ludhiana-based Offset Printers’ Association (OPA), a premier body representing the printing community in India, unveiled the much-anticipated OPA Calendar 2026 during its Annual General Meeting held on 21 December 2025. This landmark release marks the 20th edition of the calendar, a cherished annual tradition that has been enlightening the industry since its inception in 2007.
Presenting the calendar to a gathering of industry leaders, Prof. Kamal Mohan Chopra, a prominent figure in India’s print fraternity, highlighted its multifaceted value. “The OPA Calendar 2026 is far more than a simple dated 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. Additionally, 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.”
Over the years, the calendar has evolved into a knowledge-sharing and strategic planner among members. Thousands of copies will be distributed among printers, publishers, and packaging experts, empowering them to navigate the year’s opportunities with precision.
The calendar underscores OPA’s commitment to innovation and community building in the dynamic printing landscape. From technological advancements to sustainability initiatives, it encapsulates the pulse of an industry that continues to drive India’s creative and economic growth.
