Judaism · 2031
In 2031, Rosh Hashanah falls on a Tuesday, running through Wednesday, September 17, 2031.
Rosh Hashanah 2031 falls on Tuesday, September 16, 2031. That is a Tuesday, a regular working weekday in most countries. It is the 259th day of 2031 and sits in ISO week 38. If you are planning around it, the day of the week matters as much as the date itself, because it decides whether the observance creates a long weekend, a midweek pause, or a day that has to be moved under local substitute-holiday rules.
With Rosh Hashanah on a Tuesday, a single day of leave on the Monday turns it into a four-day weekend, the classic "bridge day" pattern.
Compared with 2030, when it fell on September 26, Rosh Hashanah 2031 moves about 10 days earlier in the Gregorian calendar. This drift is normal for a holiday tied to a lunar or lunisolar calendar rather than a fixed civil date.

Rosh Hashanah is the Jewish New Year and begins on the first day of Tishrei in the Hebrew calendar. It opens the High Holy Days, a period of reflection, repentance, prayer, and return that culminates with Yom Kippur. Common customs include hearing the shofar, sharing festive meals, and eating symbolic foods such as apples dipped in honey for a sweet year. Because the Hebrew calendar is lunisolar, Rosh Hashanah moves within September or early October on the Gregorian calendar. timekit lists the date from its shipped religious holidays table, computed with the local Hebrew calendar engine; Jewish holidays begin at sundown the previous evening in religious practice.
