Days to New Year = days left in the year
1 January is the first day of the new year, so the days left until New Year's Day are exactly the days remaining in the current year, today excluded. The "Today's day of the year" box shows where you are: 1 January is day 1, 31 December is day 365 (366 in leap years).
When exactly the year ends
The year changes at midnight between 31 December and 1 January, local time: the line with hours, minutes and seconds counts down to that moment. 1 January is a public holiday in most countries; 31 December is usually a normal working day, although many offices close early.
Ways to use the count
- Yearly goals: how many days you still have to finish your resolutions.
- Deadlines: many tax and work deadlines fall on 31 December: check the working days.
- New Year's Eve party: copy the countdown sentence and share it with your guests.
