How many days are between Valentine's Day and Easter?

Q: How many days are between Valentine's Day and Easter?

42 days. Valentine's Day falls on Sunday, February 14, 2027 and Easter on Sunday, March 28, 2027, which is 42 days later — 6 weeks, or 30 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.

Business days are Monday–Friday with no holiday exclusions.
Adding months keeps the day of month, clamped to the target month's length.
