Days Until Presidents' Day

Counting down to Presidents' Day (Washington's Birthday), which is the third Monday of February — the federal holiday is officially still Washington's Birthday. The next occurrence is Monday, February 15, 2027 — 131 days away — and because the date is rule-based this page rolls to the following year automatically once the day passes. The February federal holiday marks George Washington's birthday, February 22, 1732. The Uniform Monday Holiday Act of 1968 moved it to the third Monday, which is why it can never actually fall on Washington's real birthday: the earliest it can occur is February 15 and the latest February 21. Abraham Lincoln, born February 12, is folded into the popular 'Presidents' Day' name used by states and retailers.
