How many days are between Christmas Eve and Memorial Day?

Q: How many days are between Christmas Eve and Memorial Day?

158 days. Christmas Eve falls on Thursday, December 24, 2026 and Memorial Day on Monday, May 31, 2027, which is 158 days later — 22 weeks and 4 days, or 112 business days counting Monday to Friday only. The first day is not counted and the last one is, the same way a calendar counts a stay. One of these two moves around the calendar, so the gap is not the same every year — the table below gives the next five.
