When is Memorial Day 2026?

Memorial Day is set by weekday rather than by date, so it lands on a different day of the month each year — Mon, May 25 in 2026, 1 days earlier than 2025.

Memorial Day 2026 gives 3 consecutive days off, Saturday, May 23, 2026 to Monday, May 25, 2026.

This is the part that changes: the date of Memorial 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 Memorial Day changes every year, because the calendars move against each other.
