Frequently Asked Questions
When is Memorial Day in 2030?
Memorial Day 2030 falls on Monday, May 27, 2030. That is the statutory date set by 5 U.S.C. 6103 for 2030.
Why does the date of Memorial Day change every year?
Memorial Day is set to the last Monday of May, so the date moves to land on a Monday between May 25 and May 31. The rule pins the holiday to a weekday pattern (or, for Easter, to a lunar rule), so the calendar date slides while the pattern stays constant.
Is Memorial Day a federal holiday?
Yes. Its statutory name is Memorial Day, and it is one of the 11 federal holidays, which means federal offices, post offices, and Federal Reserve banks close.
What is the difference between this page and the days-until countdown?
This page answers the reference question: the exact 2030 date for Memorial Day, the rule behind it, and the years around it. The days-until family counts down live from today to the next occurrence of a fixed set of holidays, and Memorial Day is not in that set.
When is Memorial Day in other years?
Around 2030: 2028 on Monday, May 29; 2029 on Monday, May 28; 2030 on Monday, May 27; 2031 on Monday, May 26; 2032 on Monday, May 31. Dates for every year from 2026 to 2030 have their own page in the when-is matrix.
