Black Friday is the day after US Thanksgiving, the traditional start of the holiday shopping season. The next Black Friday is Friday, November 27, 2026. The counter above shows the exact hours until it begins, at midnight (00:00) in your time zone.
How this is calculated
The countdown targets midnight (00:00) at the start of Black Friday in the selected time zone —the day after the fourth Thursday of November. That wall-clock time is resolved to an absolute instant, the current instant is subtracted, and the result is shown in hours. Working in absolute time means an interval that crosses a daylight saving change is an hour longer or shorter than the calendar suggests, and the number here reflects that.
The date follows the United States (widely adopted elsewhere) rule. Other countries may observe Black Friday on a different day.
The time zone is part of the link, so a countdown shared from one place shows the same hours everywhere. When Black Friday passes, the counter moves to the next one.
