How the count is worked out
Step one: count the days in the month — 31 for August 2027. Step two: count the weekends. August 2027 starts on a Sunday, so the Saturdays and Sundays fall on the dates shown in the table — 9 weekend days in total, leaving 22 weekdays. Step three: there is none — working days are the weekdays, so the answer is 22. 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.
August 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 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2026 | 31 | 21 | 10 | 21 |
| 2027 | 31 | 22 | 9 | 22 |
| 2028 | 31 | 23 | 8 | 23 |
August 2027 in the year
August is the 8th month of 2027 — the 3rd quarter of the year (Q3). There are 212 days in the year before August begins, and 122 days left in the year after it ends. In the Northern Hemisphere it is summer; in the Southern Hemisphere the seasons are reversed. 2027 is not a leap year, with 365 days.
The federal holidays still to come after August 2027 are Labor Day (6 September 2027), Columbus Day (11 October 2027), Veterans Day (11 November 2027), Thanksgiving Day (25 November 2027), Christmas Day (25 December 2027). 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 August 2027
22 business days is 4 working weeks and 2 days. If you are planning a project, a deadline or a holiday, that is the capacity of the month: 22 days on which offices, banks and government departments are open. The weekends — 9 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 working days in august 2028.
