How the count is worked out
Step one: count the days in the month — 31 for July 2026. Step two: count the weekends. July 2026 starts on a Wednesday, so the Saturdays and Sundays fall on the dates shown in the table — 8 weekend days in total, leaving 23 weekdays. There is no third step: the answer is the number of days in the month, 31. The days between dates calculator does the same calculation for any date range, and the date calculator works out what date it is a number of days from now.
July in other years in other years
The same month in the adjacent years, for comparison — the number changes because the calendar shifts by one day each year (two after a leap year), so the same month starts on a different weekday.
| Year | Total days | Weekdays | Weekends | Business days |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2025 | 31 | 23 | 8 | 22 |
| 2026 | 31 | 23 | 8 | 23 |
| 2027 | 31 | 22 | 9 | 22 |
July 2026 in the year
July is the 7th month of 2026 — the 3rd quarter of the year (Q3). There are 181 days in the year before July begins, and 153 days left in the year after it ends. In the Northern Hemisphere it is summer; in the Southern Hemisphere the seasons are reversed. 2026 is not a leap year, with 365 days.
The federal holidays still to come after July 2026 are Labor Day (7 September 2026), Columbus Day (12 October 2026), Veterans Day (11 November 2026), Thanksgiving Day (26 November 2026), Christmas Day (25 December 2026). If you are planning the rest of the year, those are the days to watch: each one that falls on a weekday costs a business day, and each one that falls near a weekend tends to become a long weekend. The days between dates calculator counts the days to any of them, and the holiday countdowns show the countdown to each one live.
Planning with July 2026
23 business days is 4 working weeks and 3 days. If you are planning a project, a deadline or a holiday, that is the capacity of the month: 23 days on which offices, banks and government departments are open. The weekends — 8 days — are the days off, and the federal holidays are the days to check before you promise a delivery date. For the same month next year, see days in july 2027.
