How we count
Days are calendar days. The day before a holiday shows 1 day, and the holiday itself shows 0. The next morning, the countdown moves on to the following year. Nothing is sent anywhere: the math runs in your browser with your device's clock.
Want the number on your phone instead of a browser tab? Here is how to add a countdown widget to your iPhone Lock Screen.
Which holiday is coming up next?
The first tile above is always the next holiday, counted from today in your own time zone. The list reorders itself as each holiday passes.
Why do Thanksgiving and Hanukkah move every year?
Thanksgiving is the fourth Thursday of November, so its date shifts between November 22 and 28. Hanukkah starts on 25 Kislev in the Hebrew calendar, which lands anywhere from late November to late December.
Can I see these countdowns on my iPhone?
Yes, with a countdown widget on your Lock Screen or Home Screen. Our step-by-step guide shows how. Countfie, our app, has all of these holidays built in and is coming soon to the App Store.
