When is Eid al-Fitr 2027?
Eid al-Fitr 2027 is on Wednesday, 10 March 2027 — Wednesday. That is 119 days from today (11 November 2026) — 17 weeks and 0 days, or about 3.9 months. It is a Islamic observance. The exact date depends on moon sighting or the local calendar and can shift by a day.
How the countdown is worked out
The countdown is the number of days from today to the holiday's date: Wednesday, 10 March 2027 minus 11 November 2026 is 119 days. The count is in calendar days — it counts the days you have to wait, not the number of midnights, and it does not count today. The countdown timer recomputes the number live, second by second, and the days until calculator does the same calculation for any date you choose. If the holiday is in a different time zone from you, the day starts at a different moment — but the date is the date, and the countdown is in days, so the time zone does not change the number.
What is Eid al-Fitr?
Eid al-Fitr is the festival that ends Ramadan, the Muslim month of fasting. Its date depends on the sighting of the new moon, so the exact date can shift by a day.
How Eid al-Fitr is observed
Families attend morning prayers, share festive meals and give gifts and money (Eidi) to children. It is a public holiday across the Muslim world and is often called the 'Festival of Breaking the Fast'.
How the date is worked out
Eid al-Fitr follows a lunar or lunisolar calendar, so its date moves each year and the exact date depends on the moon sighting or the local calendar. The dates on this page are the expected dates; they can shift by a day. For planning travel or time off, confirm the date with an official source for your country — and for religious observance, with your local religious authority.

Eid al-Fitr 2027 in the calendar
Eid al-Fitr 2027 is the 69th day of 2027 — a year of 365 days — and it falls in ISO week 10 of the year. There are 296 days left in the year after it, and 31 days in March 2027. In the Northern Hemisphere it is spring; in the Southern Hemisphere the seasons are reversed.
The week number matters more than people think: in business and government across Europe, dates are often given as week numbers, and the week number finder gives the ISO week for any date. The day-of-year number is used in astronomy, in logistics and in some payroll systems. And the days-left figure is the useful one for planning the rest of the year: after Eid al-Fitr 2027 there are 296 days — 42 weeks — left in 2027.
Planning for Eid al-Fitr 2027
119 days is 3 months — plenty of time to plan. If Eid al-Fitr means travel, book it now: fares and hotels are usually cheapest months in advance, and the popular dates sell out. If it means time off work, put the request in early, especially if the holiday falls on a weekday — Wednesday is a working day for most people, so the day off needs to be booked. And if it means gifts or preparations, the countdown is long enough that a little planning each week is worth more than a rush in the last few days.
Eid al-Fitr 2027 falls on a Wednesday — a weekday — so most people need to take the day off to mark it properly. Book the time off early, especially if the holiday is one people travel for: the days around a weekday holiday are among the busiest travel days of the year, and the fares rise as the date approaches.
The countdown in other units
The countdown to Eid al-Fitr 2027 is 119 days — which is 17 weeks and 0 days, 2856 hours, 171,360 minutes, or about 3.9 months. Of those 119 days, 85 are weekdays and 34 are weekend days — so if you are counting working days, there are 85 of them left before the holiday. The days between dates calculator works out the same numbers for any two dates, and the business days calculator counts the working days excluding public holidays.
Eid al-Fitr around the world
As an Islamic observance, this day follows the Islamic lunar calendar, so its date moves each year and the exact date depends on the sighting of the new moon — it can shift by a day. It is a public holiday across the Muslim world. The lunar calendar is about 11 days shorter than the solar year, so Islamic observances move backwards through the seasons, falling about 11 days earlier each year.
