Thanksgiving Countdown Timer
US Thanksgiving is often a day for shared meals, gratitude and gathering with family or friends. This countdown uses the American date: the fourth Thursday of November.
Thanksgiving traditions differ from one household to another, and the day can also invite reflection on the country's history and Indigenous experiences. Because it follows a weekday rule, the numbered date changes every year. This timer marks the beginning of that Thursday in your local time zone, before any planned meal or gathering.
