Leap year check
Yes — 2096 is a leap year.
2096 is divisible by 4 and is not a century year, so it IS a leap year — February has 29 days.
A year is a leap year in the Gregorian calendar when it is divisible by 4, with one exception and one exception to that exception: a year divisible by 100 is not a leap year unless it is also divisible by 400. 2096 is divisible by 4 (2096 ÷ 4 = 524) and is not a century year, so it clears the rule cleanly and gets a February 29.
Because 2096 is a leap year, it has a February 29, and that date falls on a Wednesday. Anyone born on this date is a "leapling" whose true calendar birthday only comes around every four years. Every date from March 1 2096 onward sits one weekday later than it would in a common year, a quiet side effect of the extra day.
2096 runs 366 days, or 52 full weeks plus 2 days. The leap year before 2096 was 2092 and the next one is 2104, keeping the familiar four-year rhythm. To do date math across 2096 — counting days to a deadline, an age, or an anniversary that crosses the leap day — use the days-between calculator, which handles leap days automatically.
