How to count the days until a date
The start date is set to today when the page opens. Pick the date of your event as the End date and the calculator shows how many days are left, along with the weeks, the weekdays and the weekend days in between. If the date has already passed, the calculator swaps the dates and shows how long ago it was.
You can use it for a birthday, a holiday, a wedding, an exam, a flight, a due date or a deadline. To count between two dates that are not today, use the days between dates calculator.
