All Saints’ Day 2027 falls on Monday, November 1, 2027. The date is fixed every year, so only the weekday changes.
In the United States, it is not a holy day of obligation in 2027 because it lands on a Monday. Catholics can still attend Mass, but it is not required.

Why November 1 Never Changes
All Saints’ Day is tied to a calendar date, not a moving feast like Easter. That makes it easy to plan years ahead.
The weekday shifts instead. It was a Sunday in 2026 and becomes a Monday in 2027.
Is All Saints’ Day 2027 a Holy Day of Obligation?
No, not in the United States. The U.S. bishops’ complementary norms remove the Mass obligation when All Saints’ Day falls on a Saturday or Monday.
The Diocese of Charleston lists the Solemnity of All Saints on Nov. 1, 2027, as “No” for obligation. Catholic Answers confirms the same for 2027.
The reasoning is practical. A Monday observance would otherwise require Catholics to attend Mass on both Sunday and Monday.
Ways to Observe All Saints’ Day 2027
- Attend Mass. Check your parish bulletin, since weekday schedules vary on a non-obligatory Monday.
- Learn about a saint. Read the life of your patron saint or a saint tied to your family.
- Pray the Litany of the Saints. It takes about ten minutes and works well at home.
- Visit a cemetery. Many families do this on November 1 or 2.
- Talk with children. Ask them to choose a saint and share why that person inspires them.
