About Good Friday
Good Friday is the Friday before Easter Sunday, when Christians remember the crucifixion of Jesus. Many churches hold a service between noon and 3 p.m., and Catholics fast and skip meat. Hot cross buns are the traditional food in Britain.
It is a public holiday in the UK, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Germany and many other countries. In the US it isn't a federal holiday, so banks and post offices are open, but the stock market closes. Connecticut, Hawaii and Tennessee close state offices.

How this is calculated
Each midnight takes one off the number. Today is left out and the day itself is counted, so tomorrow shows as 1 day away. Clock changes for daylight saving make no difference.
In Excel or Google Sheets, type =DATE(2027,3,26)-TODAY() into a cell to get the same count; add 1 to include today.
Counted from Saturday, October 17, 2026 (US Eastern time). When you open the page, it counts again from the date on your device, so it matches your own day.
