Thanksgiving 2028 falls on Thursday, November 23, 2028. Thanksgiving in the United States is the fourth Thursday in November. For people planning travel, school breaks, retail calendars, family gatherings, or social posts, the weekday matters as much as the date because it shapes whether the event feels like a weekend occasion, a workday interruption, or part of a longer holiday stretch. That is especially useful for fixed holidays, where the date stays familiar but the practical timing changes every year.
