next week's meeting vs next weeks' meeting

The correct phrase is "next week's meeting," because an apostrophe after the word "weeks" implies that more than one week is being specified, e.g.: "two weeks' worth."

There can only be one "next week" (week right after this week).

next week's meeting

This phrase is correct.

Use this phrase to talk about a meeting you are going to have next week.

Some examples from our editors:

  • We can talk about this at next week's meeting.
  • I look forward to next week's meeting.
  • We intend to address that issue at next week's meeting.
  • We will discuss the other matter at next week's meeting.
  • Would the Dutch presidency confirm that what might happen in the UK elections has not motivated them in withdrawing this item from the agenda of next week's meeting?
  • This will also be an important message from next week's meeting.
  • I await eagerly an honourable outcome of the declaration from next week's meeting of Heads of State and Government.
  • This is, of course, one of the subjects to be addressed at next week's meeting in Ljubljana.
  • That is why I am calling quite specifically for this humanitarian disaster to be one of the main items on the agenda at next week's meeting of the Council.
  • This issue, together with energy security, climate change and the financing of the mitigation and adaptation to climate change, will be the focus of next week's meeting.
  • Next week's meeting will also discuss the preparations for the Copenhagen Conference on Climate Change.
  • That is why it is so useful, as the Commissioner has said, that we have this dialogue on human rights. I am sure that the Commission will be very clear at next week's meeting about European values and the expectations that we have of Tajikistan.

Some alternatives from our editors:

  • the meeting we will have next week
  • the meeting that will take place next week

next weeks' meeting

This phrase is not correct. Don't use it.

When there is an apostrophe at the end of a noun, it indicates a plural noun. We are only talking about one week here (next week, of which there can be only one), so the word "weeks" needs to have an apostrophe between "week" and "s."
