When is Mother’s Day?
It depends on where you are:
- United States, Canada, Australia and many other countries: the second Sunday of May. That’s the date this countdown uses.
- United Kingdom and Ireland: Mothering Sunday, three weeks before Easter Sunday, so it moves between March and early April.
- Mexico and several other Latin American countries: always May 10.
| Year | US (2nd Sunday of May) | UK Mothering Sunday |
|---|---|---|
| 2027 | May 9 | March 7 |
| 2028 | May 14 | March 26 |
| 2029 | May 13 | March 11 |
| 2030 | May 12 | March 31 |

Ideas
- Don’t miss the gift deadline: count down to the last day to order flowers or a gift that arrives in time.
- Family across time zones: share a countdown to the video call, set in Mom’s time zone.
- Shops, florists and restaurants: embed a countdown to your order cut-off or brunch booking on your website.
- Classrooms: a countdown on the board while students make cards.
The US date follows a rule rather than a fixed day, so links you copy count down to this year’s Mother’s Day. The countdown on this page always shows the next one.
