When is Valentine’s Day 2029?
904 days away
Valentine’s Day 2029 falls on Wednesday, February 14, 2029. It is 904 days away.
Valentine’s Day is February 14 every year. It is a civic observance, not a federal public holiday, so banks, USPS and the NYSE typically operate if the date falls on a weekday.
Cards, flowers, and dinner reservations — named for a saint but shaped mostly by school valentine exchanges and drugstore candy aisles. No day off, but hard to miss in mid-February.
