Why 2028 has 52 weeks

Under ISO 8601 a week belongs to the year that contains its Thursday. That gives every year either 52 or 53 whole weeks and never splits one across a year boundary. A year gets 53 when it starts on a Thursday, or on a Wednesday in a leap year.

ISO weeks versus US week numbering

The two conventions disagree. ISO weeks start on Monday, and week 1 is the week holding the first Thursday. The common North American convention starts weeks on Sunday and calls the week containing 1 January week 1, which can produce a short first week. Payroll, retail, and broadcast calendars often use the latter. If a week number here disagrees with one from another system, this is usually why.

Common questions

How many weeks are in 2028?
2028 has 52 ISO weeks. A year has 53 rather than 52 when it begins on a Thursday, or begins on a Wednesday in a leap year; otherwise it has 52.
When does week 1 of 2028 start?
Week 1 of 2028 runs from Monday, January 3, 2028 to Sunday, January 9, 2028. Under ISO 8601, week 1 is the week containing the first Thursday of the year.
Do week numbers start on Monday or Sunday?
ISO 8601 weeks start on Monday and end on Sunday. This differs from the common North American convention, where weeks start on Sunday and week 1 is simply the week containing 1 January — so a week number here may not match one from a US payroll or retail system.
