The start date itself is not counted. The target date is counted if it falls on Saturday or Sunday. A weekend means a Saturday-Sunday block that contains at least one counted day inside the selected range.
What this calculator tells you
Use this tool to count the remaining Saturdays and Sundays between a start date and a target date. It is useful for deadlines, exams, vacations, weddings, and other future events.
How weekends are counted
The start date itself is not counted. The target date is counted if it falls on Saturday or Sunday. A weekend means a Saturday-Sunday weekend block that contains at least one counted weekend day inside the selected range.

Frequently asked questions
Is today counted?
No. The start date itself is excluded from the count.
Is the target date counted if it falls on a weekend?
Yes. If the target date is Saturday or Sunday, it is counted as part of the weekend total.
What if the target date is Saturday?
Then that Saturday is counted, even if the Sunday of that weekend falls after the target date.
What if only Sunday remains in the current weekend?
That still counts as one weekend, because the Saturday-Sunday block contains at least one counted day.
Does this calculator include public holidays?
No. This calculator counts Saturdays and Sundays only and does not currently adjust for national or local holidays.
Can I use this for exams, vacations, weddings, or retirement?
Yes. The same logic applies to any future date that you want to count down to.
