How many days are between Veterans Day and Thanksgiving?

Q: How many days are between Veterans Day and Thanksgiving?

15 days. Veterans Day falls on Wednesday, November 11, 2026 and Thanksgiving on Thursday, November 26, 2026, which is 15 days later — 2 weeks and 1 day, or 11 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.
