Shavuot (, from Hebrew: שָׁבוּעוֹת, romanized: Šāvūʿōṯ, lit. 'Weeks'), Shavuos or Shvues (, in some Ashkenazi usage), is a Jewish holiday, one of the biblically ordained Three Pilgrimage Festivals. It occurs on the sixth day of the Hebrew month of Sivan; in the 21st century, it may fall anywhere between May 15 and June 14 on the Gregorian calendar. Shavuot falls on 6 Sivan, fifty days after the start of Passover.

Why does the date move?

Jewish holidays are fixed in the Hebrew calendar, which is lunisolar: months follow the moon, and a leap month is added seven times every nineteen years to stay aligned with the seasons. Because Hebrew years are 353–385 days long, each holiday drifts within a roughly month-wide window of the civil calendar. All Jewish holidays begin at sundown on the evening before the date shown.
