Jewish observances begin at sunset; the date shown is the recorded start/date used by this event entry and local sunset determines the actual beginning.
What Rosh Hashanah is
The Jewish new year, the first of the High Holy Days, marked by the sounding of the shofar and a meal with apples and honey.
It begins a ten-day period of reflection that ends with Yom Kippur.
When it falls, and why the date moves
The countdown at the top of this page is live, and the date beneath it is the next occurrence. The date comes from a lunisolar calendar, which follows the moon but adds a leap month every few years to stay in step with the seasons. That is why it drifts earlier for two or three years and then jumps back.
It is grouped here under Jewish, alongside the other observances that share its calendar.
What is coming up next
Once this date passes, the countdown moves straight on to the next occurrence — you do not need a different page for next year. See the full list of upcoming events, or use the countdown timer for a date of your own.
