May already has its share of notable (and meme-able) entries on the calendar, but this year, the month gets a string of quirky dates.

Tuesday, May 20, sees the first of 10 dates in a row that can be written as a palindrome, or dates that read the same forward and backward, according to the Farmer’s Almanac.

May has 11 palindrome dates occurring in the month, with the first happening on May 2.

Here’s when the remaining palindromic dates for May 2025 will occur.

Palindrome dates

  • 5/20/25 also written as 5/20/2025
  • 5/21/25
  • 5/22/25
  • 5/23/25
  • 5/24/25
  • 5/25/25
  • 5/26/25
  • 5/27/25
  • 5/28/25
  • 5/29/25

The pattern will repeat in June next year, as the “6” represents the month, and the 26th at the end of the month creates the conditions for a palindrome.
