Palm Sunday is the Sunday before Easter, beginning Holy Week. The next Palm Sunday is Sunday, March 29, 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 Palm Sunday in the selected time zone —the Sunday before Easter. 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 time zone is part of the link, so a countdown shared from one place shows the same hours everywhere. When Palm Sunday passes, the counter moves to the next one.
