Labor Day 2029 is still ahead. It falls on Monday, 3 September 2029, 1,102 days after 28 August 2026. This page is kept whichever side of today the date falls on: the date and the rule behind it are worth looking up either way. For the year after this one see Next Labor Day, and for the always-current countdown see the next Labor Day.
Labor Day 2029 is Monday, 3 September 2029
There are 1,102 days between 28 August 2026 and Labor Day 2029, which falls on Monday, 3 September 2029. That is 157 weeks and 3 days, or 752 working days once Saturdays, Sundays and the US federal holidays in between are taken out — the figure that matters if you are counting delivery lead time or a work schedule rather than sleeps. The date is 2029-09-03 in ISO form and 9/3/2029 in the US format, it falls in ISO week 36 of 2029, and it is day 246 of 365.
How the date of Labor Day is decided
The first Monday in September, so it falls between 1 and 7 September.
That makes it a floating date: it is pinned to a weekday rather than to a day number, so it is always a Monday but the date moves. In 2029 that is 3 September.
Labor Day is one of the eleven US federal holidays. Federal offices, banks and the bond market close, and it does not count as a business day in any of the business-day calculators on this site. Because the rule always puts it on a Monday, it can never land at a weekend, so it never needs an observed-date shift. The observed date is the one our business days calculator skips.
