Counting down to Halloween
Halloween falls on October 31 every year, and this countdown automatically jumps to next year's date once the current Halloween has passed — so the same link keeps counting down year after year. Pick a spooky style, share the link with friends planning a party, or embed the countdown on a costume shop or events page.
A free countdown to any date
Set any date and this tool counts down the years, days, hours, minutes and seconds until it arrives — a wedding, a vacation, a product launch, an exam, or the New Year. It handles time zones and daylight saving so the countdown is right for everyone, and you can share it with a link or embed it on your own site. No signup, no ads over the countdown.
Popular countdowns
The most-searched countdowns are the ones everyone waits for: how many days until Christmas, days until New Year, days until Halloween and days until summer. Tap a template to start one instantly, then customise the style and share it. Each template rolls over to next year automatically once the date passes.
Share and embed your countdown
Every countdown has its own link, so friends, family or your team can open the exact same live countdown. Show a QR code on a printed invite, or copy the embed code to drop a live countdown onto a website, blog, landing page or event page — it works on WordPress, Shopify and anything that accepts an iframe.
Count only the days that matter
Turn on business-days-only to count just Monday to Friday — useful for project deadlines or working out how many workdays are left until a holiday break. Turn on include-today when you want boundary-inclusive counting for planning.
Countdown to a date vs a countdown timer
A countdown timer counts down a length of time you choose, like a 10-minute kitchen timer. A countdown to a date counts down to a fixed point on the calendar, like midnight on New Year's Eve. Use the Countdown Timer for durations, and this tool for dates and events.
