How to calculate

Counts the days from today, or any date you choose, to the next Black Friday, with its date and day of the week.

Example with the default inputs (Count from September 29, 2026) on the example date Tuesday, September 29, 2026: From September 29, 2026, there are 59 days until Black Friday on Friday, November 27, 2026.

Method: Find the first date of Black Friday on or after the start date, then count the days from the start date to it.

  • Black Friday is the day after US Thanksgiving (the fourth Thursday of November).
  • Start dates from January 1, 1986 to December 31, 2400 work, because the US federal holiday rules used here start in 1986.
  • The start date itself is not counted: from the day before, the count is 1; on the day itself, it is 0.
  • Dates are calendar days with no time of day, so a time zone or a daylight-saving change never adds or loses a day.
