How many days until Epiphany?
Epiphany falls on January 6, so the countdown above rolls over to next year automatically the moment this year's Epiphany passes — it will never show a negative number.
The big number is the count of whole days from today until Epiphany. The live timer beneath it ticks down the remaining hours, minutes and seconds in your local time zone, so it stays accurate wherever you are.
How the date is worked out
Epiphany is fixed at January 6, twelve days after Christmas, marking the visit of the Magi. The date never moves, though some churches observe it on the nearest Sunday.
Epiphany falls on January 6 every year. The counter at the top of the page shows the exact number of days until the next January 6, updated live. Below it, a timer counts down the remaining hours, minutes and seconds.
What day of the week is Epiphany this year?
Epiphany falls on January 6 every year. The weekday therefore changes from year to year. The date line under the headline shows the full weekday and date of the upcoming Epiphany, calculated automatically from your device clock.
Does the countdown reset after Epiphany?
The Epiphany countdown resets automatically. As soon as Epiphany has passed, the timer switches to next year's date, so the figure on screen is always the time until the next Epiphany. It never counts up and never shows a negative number, and the year label beside the headline updates to the new target year.
What does Epiphany commemorate?
Epiphany, on January 6, commemorates the visit of the Magi to the infant Jesus in the Western churches and the baptism of Jesus in the Eastern ones. It closes the twelve days of Christmas and is also known as Three Kings' Day. It is a public holiday in Spain, Italy, Austria, Poland, Greece and parts of Germany, but not in the United Kingdom or the United States. Many households take their Christmas decorations down on or before this date.
