Holiday Countdown & Date Lookup
Look up the next public holiday for your country and see a live countdown to it.
Holiday dates are computed fresh for any year from durable calendar rules (fixed dates, nth-weekday-of-month, and the Easter algorithm) - never a hard-coded list that goes stale.
Everything computes locally in the browser - no upload, no account, and no network request after the page loads.
Planning time off, scheduling a delivery, or checking whether banks and offices close next week all start with the same question: when is the next public holiday? Select your country and the answer appears in the first line, with a countdown that ticks down by the second. The full-year table below the tool lists every computed holiday for the selected country, so you can scan the whole calendar at once.
Coverage is national-level public holidays for the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom, and Australia; state, provincial, or regional holidays that vary by location within a country are not included. The Copy link button encodes the country and holiday in the URL, so a shared link opens straight to the same countdown.
