Neat! Good form factor, as it lets me explore things I'd otherwise never think of (mostly, cultural events in other cultures), but... ...Doesn't have what I care about (festivals), does have what I really don't care about (sports). Can you add a filter so I can remove the latter? Not sure what you can do about the former - data sources / input is the hard part, I'm pretty sure :P
Just a design tip: the red border that separates the full date from the days till countdown is completely unnecessary. Also, a bit bigger dark gradient behind it would be nice. Also, when hovering over the top menu the link goes dark enough to be hard to read, so perhaps not change the color on hover, but add a border underneath the link instead to hint that the link is being in fact hovered?
Been using this site before and the only thing which bothers me is the moving background color. While it is a nice addition on desktop, it makes my 2015 Macbook's fans blow after some seconds. I would suggest looking for less computing intensive way to make the backgrounds work like they do now. Either way, it's not a huge deal since I seldom watch the site for longer than those few seconds, but I have clicked the al…

The reason for 2 events/pages are that they are tracking different events.

The latter will allow you to count down the time to the start of the ceremony in your local timezone.
Why does it have Inauguration Day on both January 19 and 20?
Must be a bug or other error. US presidential terms end on January 20, so it definitely wouldn't be before then. According to Wikipedia inauguration is held on the 20, unless it's a Sunday in which case it's held the next day.
So obviously this site is built 100% with SEO in mind. The domain name and the fact that each event is its own page with the most obvious searchable title. Good job anyway! Looks really good.
