When is Reconciliation Day 2027?
Reconciliation Day 2027 is on Monday, May 31, 2027. In Australia it is the first Monday on or after May 27, so it always lands between May 27 and June 2. In 2028 it is on Monday, May 29, 2028. Canberra gets the first Monday on or after May 27 off. That date is the anniversary of the 1967 referendum, when Australians voted to count Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people in the population. The ACT first held the holiday in 2018, and it starts National Reconciliation Week, which runs to Mabo Day on June 3.

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(2027,5,31)-TODAY() into a cell to get the same count; add 1 to include today.
Counted from Friday, October 16, 2026 (US Eastern time). When you open the page, it counts again from the date on your device, so it matches your own day.
