Live countdowns to the world's most-searched holidays, sorted by what is coming up next. Western, Islamic, Jewish, Hindu, Chinese, Persian, and Buddhist dates, each with a ticking countdown, the next five years, and a calendar export.
The countdown list is designed for quick planning: scan the number of days left, open the holiday page, then export the date to a calendar if you need a reminder. Each holiday page shows the next occurrence and future dates so you can plan content calendars, school breaks, travel, shipping cutoffs, family calls, or team coverage without rebuilding the same date lookup every year.
Some holidays use fixed Gregorian dates, such as Christmas. Others come from religious, lunar, or lunisolar calendars, so their Gregorian dates move each year. For those moving holidays, Zeitful stores the resolved dates in a calendar catalogue rather than guessing from a simple monthly rule. That matters for observances such as Easter, Ramadan, Eid, Diwali, Passover, Chinese New Year, and Vesak, where a naive "same day each year" countdown would be wrong.
The day count is based on the next listed calendar date. It is a planning aid, not a statement about when a religious observance begins in every local community. Some observances begin at sunset, some countries announce official holiday dates close to the event, and some regions observe a different public-holiday date from the religious date. For travel, payroll, school closure, or legal planning, confirm the date with the relevant local authority.
