Columbus Day falls on Monday, October 12, 2026 and Christmas Eve on Thursday, December 24, 2026, which is 73 days later — 10 weeks and 3 days, or 53 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. Both dates are fixed, so the gap is the same every year apart from leap-year shifts in the weekdays.
