I don't expect calendars, or time keeping in general, to change too much until we have civilizations in multiple planets (if we ever reach that point anyway). And even then, I doubt much would change here on Earth.
I think if we reach that point, we would probably look at the Earth calendars the same way we currently look at the Latin language.
Some countries are still on the imperial system. Calendars are even harder to change as they often hold a lot of cultural and religious meaning. Nobody's that attached to yards vs meters, but people are attached to Jan being the first month, Sunday the first day, Ramadan measured by the cycles of the moon, etc.
