How many days until Passover?

Passover in plain numbers

Today is Wednesday, September 30, 2026. Measured against Passover on Thursday, April 22, 2027, the gap is 204 days, which is 29 weeks and 1 days or roughly 6 months. In hours that comes to 4,896, and in minutes 293,760. The target date is a Thursday and sits in week 16 of 2027.

This page is not a snapshot. The figures are recalculated every time it loads, using the -04:00 time zone, so tomorrow the count will be one day smaller. If you bookmark the page you will always see the current gap rather than the number that was true on the day you saved it, and nobody has to edit anything for that to stay correct.

Planning around the date

For work and school planning the useful numbers are working days and weekends. Between today and Passover there are 146 weekdays (Monday to Friday), 29 Saturdays and 29 Sundays. Take out public holidays in your region and you have a realistic count of working days left. If you are paid every two weeks, expect about 14 paydays before then, and about 29 if you are paid weekly.

Some people prefer to break a long wait into stages. The quarter mark of the range is Friday, November 20, 2026, the halfway point is Sunday, January 10, 2027, and the three-quarter mark is Tuesday, March 2, 2027. By the time Passover arrives, 30.7% of 2027 will have gone by. There are 29 Fridays in the range, which is handy if your deadlines or deliveries land at the end of the week.

About Passover

The first night of Passover, computed from the Hebrew calendar's 15th of Nisan. Because Passover is a religious observance, many families organize travel, meals, services and time off around it. Congregations usually publish their own schedules, so treat the date here as the calendar date and confirm local timings with your community.

Passover follows the Hebrew calendar, a lunisolar system that adds a leap month in seven of every nineteen years. The Gregorian date is computed with the fixed arithmetic rules of that calendar.

Passover in other years

In the coming years Passover falls on: Tuesday, April 11, 2028 (559 days from today); Saturday, March 31, 2029 (913 days from today); Thursday, April 18, 2030 (1,296 days from today); Tuesday, April 8, 2031 (1,651 days from today). Last year it fell on Thursday, April 2, 2026. Comparing the weekdays shows how the holiday drifts through the week, which matters when you plan long weekends, school breaks and travel that depends on which day of the week it lands.

What comes next

The next major date after Passover is Mother's Day on Sunday, May 9, 2027, 17 days later. If you are planning a stretch of several weeks, it helps to know where the next break or deadline falls so you can space out your commitments.

Using this day counter

Counting in days is the most flexible view. It suits deadlines, trips, exam dates, pregnancy milestones and product launches, because a day is the smallest unit most calendars use. The day count on this page includes weekends, so subtract weekends and holidays if you only care about working time. For a rounder feel, try the weeks view; for a long horizon, try months.
