Thanksgiving: A US Federal Observance
Thanksgiving is recognized in the United States as a public observance. Federal holidays mean most government offices, banks, and the postal service are closed, and many schools and businesses follow suit — so the date affects mail delivery, paychecks, and stock-market trading days, not just celebrations.
When a federal holiday falls on a weekend it is typically observed on the nearest weekday, which can shift the long weekend earlier or later than expected. Counting down to Thanksgiving 2028 helps you confirm the actual observed date, plan a three-day weekend, and avoid scheduling appointments or shipments on a day when offices are closed.
