How Many Days Until Good Friday 2029?

Good Friday 2029 is Friday, 30 March 2029

There are 954 days between 19 August 2026 and Good Friday 2029, which falls on Friday, 30 March 2029. That is 136 weeks and 2 days, or 652 working days once Saturdays, Sundays and the US federal holidays in between are taken out — the figure that matters if you are counting delivery lead time or a work schedule rather than sleeps. The date is 2029-03-30 in ISO form and 3/30/2029 in the US format, it falls in ISO week 13 of 2029, and it is day 89 of 365.

How the date of Good Friday is decided

The Friday before Easter Sunday, so it is two days before Easter and follows the same computus.

That makes it a computed date: there is no fixed day and no simple weekday rule, so it has to be worked out from a formula or a calendar of its own each year. In 2029 it works out as Friday 30 March.

Good Friday is an observance rather than a federal holiday. Offices, banks and schools stay open unless an individual employer chooses otherwise, and it counts as an ordinary business day in every calculator here. Only the eleven federal holidays are treated as non-working days — the list and the reasoning are on the holiday sources page.

Both the date and the weekday move, because the rule is not tied to either.

Every convention used above — whether the start date counts, how month ends are clamped, which holidays close an office — is written out on the methodology page, including how we count the 652 working days above.
