Days Until New Year
What remains of this year, ticking away live.
This countdown runs to midnight into 1 January — the moment the year changes in your own time zone. It is exactly the number people mean when they ask how much of the year is left.
New Year is the only global holiday that happens 24 times: each time zone crosses midnight in turn, starting near the International Date Line. Wherever you are, your local countdown above is the one your fireworks follow.

Frequently asked questions
Is New Year the same moment everywhere?
No — midnight arrives per time zone. Auckland celebrates roughly a day before Honolulu. This page counts to YOUR local midnight, which is when your year actually changes.
What weekday is New Year's Day?
The table below lists the weekday for the next five years — useful because a weekend New Year usually shifts the public holiday to the following Monday in many countries.
How many weeks are left in the year?
The "in weeks" line above converts the remaining days into weeks and days — handy for goal-setting, savings plans, and "weeks left in the year" planning.
