Next Weekday

Find the date of the next or previous time a chosen weekday occurs. Quick scheduling answers, kept on your device.

Type the date with digits only; hyphens are added automatically.

How it works

Starting from the date you enter, the tool steps to the next or previous occurrence of the weekday you choose. The starting day itself is never counted as the answer.

Examples

  • Next Thursday after Thursday, January 1, 2026 is Thursday, January 8, 2026.
  • Next Friday after Thursday, January 1, 2026 is Friday, January 2, 2026.

Need to know which weekday a date falls on instead? Try the Day of the Week tool.

Frequently asked questions

Is the given date itself counted?

No. The result is the next or previous occurrence strictly after or before the date you enter.

What if the date I enter is already that weekday?

The next occurrence is one week later and the previous occurrence is one week earlier.

How is this different from the Day of the Week tool?

That tool tells which weekday a given date falls on. This tool finds the date of the next or previous time a chosen weekday occurs.
