How Many Days Until Dragon Boat Festival?
This page counts down to the Dragon Boat Festival on the fifth day of the fifth lunar month. The Gregorian date moves; the tool looks up the next occurrence.
The display is a date countdown, not a race-heat duration. Keep the tab open for live hours. Zongzi cooking minutes belong on the duration timer.
Other lunar holidays (Qingming, Mid-Autumn) have their own URLs. Stay here for Duanwu only.
