How Many Days Until Mother’s Day?

When is Mother’s Day?

In the US, Canada and Australia, Mother’s Day is the second Sunday of May (May 8–14), a date proclaimed nationally in the US in 1914 after Anna Jarvis’s campaign. The UK’s Mothering Sunday is different: the fourth Sunday of Lent, exactly three weeks before Easter Sunday.

Always the next occurrence

Holiday countdowns are calculated in your browser for the next time each date comes round, so they never point to a date that has already passed. Fixed dates (Christmas, New Year, Halloween) simply roll over; moving holidays use their rules — Thanksgiving is the fourth Thursday of November in the US, US Mother’s Day the second Sunday of May, and Easter is computed with the standard Western Easter formula.

Ramadan and Eid dates

Ramadan and Eid follow the Islamic lunar calendar and move about 11 days earlier each year. The countdown uses the calculated Umm al-Qura calendar; because many communities start the month after the new moon is sighted, the actual date can differ by a day.

Counting days correctly

The countdown runs to midnight at the start of the target day in your local time zone. “Days until” therefore means full days remaining; if you want to count the target day itself, add one. Daylight saving time changes are taken into account automatically by your device clock.
