How this count works, and questions
How this count works
This count uses Gregorian Easter Sunday. Its date is calculated for the chosen year, so it can fall in March or April.
Orthodox Easter can fall on a different date. This page does not use the Orthodox calendar, and Easter is not a recurring US federal day off.
A worked example
From November 4, 2026 in New York, March 28, 2027 is 144 days away. The span contains 102 weekdays and 42 weekend days.
Questions about this countdown
Does the count include today?
No. The count leaves out today and includes Easter Sunday itself. The day before, it shows 1 day. On Easter Sunday, 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 Easter Sunday.
Is Easter Sunday a public holiday in the US?
No. Easter Sunday 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.
