# Multiple Mode

Set the `mode` prop to `"multiple"` to enable the selection of multiple dates in DayPicker.

```tsx
<DayPicker mode="multiple" />
```

<BrowserWindow sourceUrl="https://github.com/gpbl/react-day-picker/blob/main/examples/Multiple.tsx">
  <Examples.Multiple />
</BrowserWindow>

## Multiple Mode Props

| Prop Name  | Type                                                                             | Description                                       |
| ---------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------- |
| `selected` | `Date[] \| undefined`                                                            | The selected dates.                               |
| `onSelect` | [`OnSelectHandler<Date[] \| undefined>`](../api/type-aliases/OnSelectHandler.md) | Event callback when a date is selected.           |
| `min`      | `number`                                                                         | The minimum number of dates that can be selected. |
| `max`      | `number`                                                                         | The maximum number of dates that can be selected. |
| `required` | `boolean`                                                                        | Make the selection required.                      |

Use the `selected` and `onSelect` props to manage the selected dates:

```tsx
export function App() {
  const [selected, setSelected] = React.useState<Date[] | undefined>();

  return (
    <DayPicker mode="multiple" selected={selected} onSelect={setSelected} />
  );
}
```

## Min and Max Dates

Use the `min` and `max` props to limit the number of selectable dates.

```tsx
<DayPicker mode="multiple" min={2} max={5} />
```

## Required Selection

By setting the `required` prop, DayPicker ensures that the selected dates cannot be unselected.

```tsx
<DayPicker mode="multiple" required selected={[new Date()]} />
```
