When is Labor Day 2026?

Labor Day is set by weekday rather than by date, so it lands on a different day of the month each year — Mon, Sep 7 in 2026, 6 days later than 2025.

Labor Day 2026 gives 3 consecutive days off, Saturday, September 5, 2026 to Monday, September 7, 2026.

This is the part that changes: the date of Labor Day moves by a day or two each year, and whether that makes a three-day weekend, a four-day one or nothing at all depends entirely on which weekday it lands on.

Which dates fall near Labor Day changes every year, because the calendars move against each other.
