Memorial Day weekend custody schedule for two homes
How co-parents share Memorial Day weekend: the common arrangements, the dates from 2026 to 2031, and who has it when you alternate by odd and even years.
Common ways to share it
- Attach the Monday to whoever has that weekend, so the weekend simply runs a day longer
- Alternate the long weekend every year
- Pair it with Labor Day: one home gets Memorial Day, the other Labor Day, swapping each year
- Leave the Monday with the regular weekday schedule

Memorial Day weekend is the last Monday of May. Your own parenting plan decides the times.
In TaskFamily, Memorial Day weekend becomes an exception that overrides the usual two-homes schedule for those days, so both homes and the children see where they will be. Swap requests need the other parent's approval and go into the record.
Free for one household. The Co-parent plan covers both homes for $19 a month - $9.50 each when two parents split it.
