- 2027-05-18: A Tuesday. Cboe lists this series on May 18, 2027, one day earlier than a Wednesday listing would fall, because NYSE observes Juneteenth on Friday June 18, 2027.

This table ends at May 2027. Cboe has not published a 2027 expiration calendar, and the listed VIX series run out after May 2027. Later 2027 months are left off rather than calculated from a rule, because the rule is what June 2026 broke. Checked 2026-09-01.
