Well, in a windows forms application, the month calender doesn't support descriptions, but there are alternatives. Here's a code example.

Add this class to your project.

C#

using System;
public class Holiday
{
    public DateTime Time {get; set;}
    public string Description {get; set;}
    public Holiday(DateTime time, string des)
    {
        Time = time;
        Description = des;
    }
}

Then use the following code in your code block.

C#

Holiday[] holidays = { new Holiday(new DateTime(2012, 12, 25), "Christmas"), new Holiday(new DateTime(2013, 1, 1), "New year's") };
monthCalendar1.DateSelected += delegate(object sender, DateRangeEventArgs e)
{
    Holiday day = holidays.ToList().Find(t => t.Time == e.Start);
    if (day != null)
    {
         //Do something here...display messagebox, etc
    }
};

foreach (Holiday time in holidays) //Bold holidays
    monthCalendar1.AddBoldedDate(time.Time);
