How many days until Labor Day?
Labor Day falls on the first Monday in September, so the countdown above rolls over to next year automatically the moment this year's Labor Day passes — it will never show a negative number.
The big number is the count of whole days from today until Labor Day. 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
Labor Day is the first Monday in September, so it falls between September 1 and 7. The countdown resolves that Monday automatically.
Labor Day falls on the first Monday in September each year. The counter at the top of the page shows the exact number of days until the next Labor Day, updated live. Below it, a timer counts down the remaining hours, minutes and seconds.
What day of the week is Labor Day this year?
Labor Day falls on the first Monday in September each year. The weekday therefore changes from year to year. The date line under the headline shows the full weekday and date of the upcoming Labor Day, calculated automatically from your device clock.
Does the countdown reset after Labor Day?
The Labor Day countdown resets automatically. As soon as Labor Day has passed, the timer switches to next year's date, so the figure on screen is always the time until the next Labor Day. 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 Labor Day mark in the United States?
Labor Day honours the American labour movement and the contribution of workers, and has been a US federal holiday since 1894. It falls on the first Monday in September, so the date lands between September 1 and September 7. The long weekend is widely treated as the unofficial end of summer, with most schools returning shortly afterwards. Most other countries honour workers instead on International Workers' Day, May 1.
