How many days until Christmas 2024? Here’s a live countdown.

The holidays are just around the corner! Thanksgiving is just days away, and then we’re counting down the days to Christmas.

First, let’s talk about Thanksgiving, which takes place on Thursday, November 28th.

Major businesses in Metro Detroit and across the United States will have different hours of operation for the holiday. Here is a list of which businesses will be open and closed on Thanksgiving.

Now for Christmas. You’ve probably already seen holiday drinks in coffee shops and Christmas decorations in shops. Maybe you’ve even joined the festivities and already have your tree up.

If you are among those who are ready for Christmas, here is your countdown.

Christmas takes place on December 25 every year. Xmasclock’s Christmas Countdown 2024 tracker has a red clock that counts down the days, minutes and seconds until Christmas.
