About the countdown to January 1
There are 55 days between today and January 1, which next falls on Friday, January 1, 2027 — the 1st day of January and the 1st day of 2027. That is 7 full weeks and 6 days.
January 1 falls on a Friday in 2027. Because a common year is 365 days, or 52 weeks and one day, the weekday advances by one each year and by two across a leap year — so January 1 will be a Saturday in 2028.
