About Cinco de Mayo
Marks the Mexican army's victory over French forces at the Battle of Puebla on May 5, 1862. It is a bigger celebration in the US than in Mexico, with parades, mariachi music and Mexican food, and it is not Mexico's Independence Day.

How this count works, and questions
How this count works
Cinco de Mayo falls on May 5.
This is an observance, not a recurring US federal day off.
A worked example
From November 4, 2026 in New York, May 5, 2027 is 182 days away. The span contains 130 weekdays and 52 weekend days.
Questions about this countdown
Does the count include today?
No. The count leaves out today and includes Cinco de Mayo itself. The day before, it shows 1 day. On Cinco de Mayo, it shows 0 days.
Which time zone does the count use?
Your device's time zone, named on the Today line at the top of the page. Choose another time zone in the form to count to midnight there instead.
Why might another countdown show a different number?
Some countdowns also count today, or count full 24-hour periods. This page counts calendar dates. The clock under the answer shows the exact time left until midnight at the start of Cinco de Mayo.
Is Cinco de Mayo a public holiday in the US?
No. Cinco de Mayo is an observance. It is not one of the legal public holidays listed in federal law (5 U.S.C. 6103), so it is not a federal day off. States, schools and employers set their own schedules.
