About Father’s Day
Father’s Day is the third Sunday in June. Federal law (36 U.S.C. 109) states that “the third Sunday in June is Father’s Day” and asks the President to issue a proclamation. It is always on a Sunday, so its calendar date changes every year: it can be as early as June 15 and as late as June 21. In 2027 it is on June 20; in 2028 it is on June 18.
Father’s Day is a national observance, not a legal public holiday. Its range overlaps Juneteenth (June 19), which is a federal holiday: in 2033 the two fall on the same Sunday, and Juneteenth is then observed on Monday, June 20.
How the countdown is counted
The number of days is the difference between today’s date and Father’s Day, so on the day before it the countdown reads 1 day, and on the day itself it reads 0. Weeks are whole 7-day blocks with the leftover days shown separately. Business days count Monday through Friday from today up to the day before Father’s Day, skipping any federal holiday on its observed date — the same rules the date calculator uses. To count to a different date, or to include the holiday itself, change the end date in the calculator above.
