How it works
US Labor Day is the first Monday in September. The calendar date changes every year; this page uses the same nth-weekday rule as the dynamic Days Until Labor Day event page to find the next occurrence in UTC.
If today's UTC date is before this year's Labor Day, the counter targets that Monday. If today is Labor Day, the page reports that Labor Day is today. If Labor Day has already passed, the target moves to the first Monday in September of the following year.
Day counts use UTC calendar days only. Weeks are whole weeks (days ÷ 7, rounded down). Months are approximate calendar months and days. Optional “Include today” adds one day for future dates.

The Days Until Calculator counts calendar days to any future date—or how many days ago a past date was—with an optional include-today setting for planning.
Countdown To Date adds an optional UTC time, event name, and hour/minute updates when you need more detail than calendar days alone.
Seasonal calculators target the next occurrence automatically—no date to enter. Fixed dates include Valentine's Day (February 14), Independence Day (July 4), Halloween (October 31), Christmas (December 25), and New Year's Day (January 1).
Movable US holidays use the same rules as the dynamic event pages: Mother's Day (second Sunday in May), Easter Sunday (Gregorian), Thanksgiving (fourth Thursday in November), Black Friday (the day after Thanksgiving), and Cyber Monday (the Monday after Thanksgiving).
For a live second-by-second display with hours and minutes, use the Countdown Timer when the target includes a specific time of day in UTC.
