About the Thanksgiving countdown
Thanksgiving in the United States falls on the fourth Thursday of November, so the date changes every year — this countdown works it out automatically and ticks down to the right day.
- US Thanksgiving is always the fourth Thursday of November
- The day after is Black Friday, the biggest shopping day of the American year
- Canada celebrates its own Thanksgiving earlier, on the second Monday of October
