How this count works, and questions
How this count works
US Thanksgiving falls on the fourth Thursday in November. Its date changes with the year; the highlighted Thursday is the date used in this count.
This is the US holiday. The Friday after Thanksgiving is not a recurring federal holiday, though some workplaces close.
A worked example
From November 4, 2026 in New York, November 26, 2026 is 22 days away. The span contains 16 weekdays and 6 weekend days.
Questions about this countdown
Does the count include today?
No. The count leaves out today and includes Thanksgiving Day itself. The day before, it shows 1 day. On Thanksgiving Day, 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 Thanksgiving Day.
Is Thanksgiving Day a public holiday in the US?
For federal employees, yes. Thanksgiving Day is one of the legal public holidays listed in federal law (5 U.S.C. 6103). States, schools and private employers set their own days off.
