Rule: Fourth Thursday in November.

How the date of Thanksgiving is set

Thanksgiving Day is the fourth Thursday in November under 5 U.S.C. § 6103, so it falls between November 22 and November 28. Congress fixed the fourth-Thursday rule in 1941; before that the date was set each year by presidential proclamation. Source: 5 U.S.C. § 6103 — Holidays (Cornell LII).

How the countdown is counted

The big number counts calendar days from today, not counting today, so the day before Thanksgiving shows 1 day. The live clock counts down to midnight at the start of the day in your time zone, which is why it can show one day fewer plus some hours. As of Monday, October 26, 2026, 31 days remain, of which 23 are weekdays (Monday to Friday, public holidays not removed). To count down to a birthday, a trip or any other date, or to count the days since a past date, use the Days Until Calculator.
