Thanksgiving 2027 is Thursday, 25 November 2027
There are 463 days between 19 August 2026 and Thanksgiving 2027, which falls on Thursday, 25 November 2027. That is 66 weeks and 1 day, or 316 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 2027-11-25 in ISO form and 11/25/2027 in the US format, it falls in ISO week 47 of 2027, and it is day 329 of 365.
How the date of Thanksgiving is decided
The fourth Thursday in November, so it falls between 22 and 28 November. Note fourth, not last: in years with five Thursdays in November it is not the final one.
That makes it a floating date: it is pinned to a weekday rather than to a day number, so it is always a Thursday but the date moves. In 2027 that is 25 November.
Thanksgiving 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 Thursday, it can never land at a weekend, so it never needs an observed-date shift.

The weekday never changes; only the date does, inside the November window the rule allows.
Every convention used above — whether the start date counts, how month ends are clamped, which holidays close an office — is written out on the methodology page, including how we count the 316 working days above.
