PlanetClocksCountdown to a Date
Count down the days, hours, minutes and seconds until any event. Set a date, give it a name and share the link with friends.
How the countdown works
Enter the date and time of your event in your own local time, add a name and press Start countdown. The counter updates several times per second and plays a short sound when it reaches zero, as long as the page is open. Your last countdown is remembered on this device.
Press Share link to get a URL that contains the exact moment of the event. Anyone who opens it sees the same countdown converted to their own time zone, which makes it ideal for launches, online events and family celebrations across countries.
Ideas
Common uses include counting down to New Year's Eve, a wedding, holidays, exams, a product launch, a flight, or the end of a sale. Without any input, the page counts down to the next New Year in your time zone.
Frequently asked questions
Does the countdown keep running if I close the page?
The target date is saved, so when you come back the countdown shows the correct remaining time. The sound can only play while the page is open.
What time zone is used?
The date you enter is interpreted in your device time zone. A shared link stores the absolute moment, so it stays correct for people in other time zones.
Is daylight saving time considered?
Yes, the remaining time is calculated from absolute timestamps, so clock changes do not affect the result.
