About Mother's Day (US)

In the United States, Mother's Day is the second Sunday of May, so it falls between May 8 and 14. It is the busiest restaurant day of the year in the US, ahead of Valentine's Day, so brunch reservations go two to three weeks out and many places switch to prix-fixe menus.

Roughly 80 countries share the US date, including Australia, Canada, Japan and most of Latin America. Flowers ordered for Sunday delivery usually need to be placed by the preceding Wednesday; Saturday delivery is a safer bet and often cheaper.

Frequently asked questions

Is Mother's Day the same date everywhere?
