It falls onSunday, March 7, 2027

Mothering Sunday is the fourth Sunday of Lent, three weeks before Easter Sunday, so it moves with Easter.

This year's date has passed. Counting down to the next one.

Because it follows Easter, the UK date can be anywhere from early March to early April, and it is never the same as the US date in May. That is why cards bought abroad and calendar apps set to the wrong country get it wrong.

In 2027 it falls on 7 March and in 2028 on 26 March. Restaurants for Sunday lunch book up a fortnight ahead.

Questions, answered

Why does UK Mother's Day move?
It is tied to Easter: Mothering Sunday is the fourth Sunday of Lent, exactly three weeks before Easter Sunday.
Is it the same as the US Mother's Day?
No. The US celebrates on the second Sunday of May. See the separate countdown for the US date.
How do the reminders work?
Each Remind me button opens WhatsApp with one message already typed for Poko, dated for this year's occurrence. You press Send, Poko confirms the date, and the message arrives on WhatsApp when it is due. Nothing is sent by this page.

Or just tell Poko the date.

Once Poko is in your chat, say “remind me a week before Thanksgiving to order the turkey”.
