pl try this

you r using "read = in.readLine())" two times in while loop that why it is skiping the lomes

public ArrayList read(int checkDay, int checkMonth, int checkYear) {
        ArrayList events = new ArrayList();
        BufferedReader in = null;
        String read;
        try {
            in = new BufferedReader(new FileReader("calendar.txt"));
            while ((read = in.readLine()) != null) {

                String[] split = read.split(",");
                System.out.println(read);

                if (split[0].equals(Integer.toString(checkDay)) && split[1].equals(Integer.toString(checkMonth)) && split[2].equals(Integer.toString(checkYear))) {
                    events.add(split[0] + " : " + split[1] + "/" + split[2] + "/" + split[3]);
                }

            }
        } catch (IOException e) {
            System.out.println("There was a problem: " + e);
            e.printStackTrace();

        } finally {
            try {
                in.close();
            } catch (Exception e) {
            }

        }
        return events;
