How the Days Until Father's Day works
See how many days until Father's Day from today or any date you choose. Pick your region, because the US, UK, Canada and Ireland use the third Sunday in June while Australia and New Zealand use the first Sunday in September, and the page counts down live.
How the days until Father's Day are counted
The formula finds the first Sunday of the month, adds weeks to reach the right Sunday, and subtracts the date you count from. If this year's Father's Day has passed, the count moves on to next year.
Worked examples
For example, from 30 September 2026 there are 263 days until Father's Day on 20 June 2027 in the US and UK. As a second example, from 1 September 2026 there were 5 days to go in Australia, where it fell on 6 September.
June or September
The June date spread from the United States, where it became a permanent national day in 1972. Australia and New Zealand chose early September, which is spring in the southern hemisphere.
How many days until Father's Day each year?
The table lists both dates for each year ahead. The June date falls between 15 and 21 June, and the September date between 1 and 7 September.
