## **How the countdown works**

The page reads today's date from your device, finds the next Christmas on or after it, and counts the calendar days in between. The weeks, weekdays and US working days below the number cover the same days, starting with today. For any other date, use the [days until calculator](https://calendarbest.com/tools/days-until).

## **Days Until Christmas FAQ**

### **How many days until Christmas?**

The countdown at the top of this page shows the days left until the next Christmas, counted from today's date on your device. On Christmas itself it shows "It's today!" and the next day it starts counting down to the following year.

### **What day is Christmas 2026?**

Christmas 2026 is on Friday, December 25, 2026. In 2027 it falls on Saturday, December 25, 2027.

### **Is Christmas always on the same date?**

Christmas Day is always December 25 and is a US federal holiday.

### **How are the days counted?**

The count is the number of calendar days from today to Christmas, not counting today. If it is 1 day away, Christmas is tomorrow. "Sleeps" is the same number: one sleep per night left.
