When exactly is Epiphany?

Epiphany falls on January 6 every year. The live counter above shows exactly how many days, hours, minutes and seconds remain until the next one, worked out in your own time zone.

Epiphany, on 6 January, closes the Christmas season — the twelfth day of Christmas, after which decorations traditionally come down.

It is a bigger day than Christmas itself in parts of the Spanish-speaking world, where Día de Reyes is when children receive presents from the Three Kings rather than from Santa on 25 December. It is a public holiday in Spain, Italy, Austria, Poland, Greece, much of Latin America and several German and Swiss regions.

Frequently asked questions

When is Epiphany?

Epiphany falls on January 6 every year.

Is Epiphany the same as Three Kings Day?

They are the same date and largely the same feast, named for different parts of it. Western churches emphasise the visit of the Magi, hence Three Kings Day. Eastern Orthodox churches emphasise the baptism of Jesus instead, and mark the day with blessings of water and ice swimming.
