Memorial Day is a US federal holiday on the last Monday of May, honouring military personnel who died in service. The next Memorial Day is Monday, May 25, 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 Memorial Day in the selected time zone —the last Monday of May. 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 rule. Other countries may observe Memorial Day 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 Memorial Day passes, the counter moves to the next one.
