In case that you were looking for an automated way to print the date,
here's one option:
\setuplanguage[en][date={weekday,{, },day:ord,{~},month,{,~},year}]
(And the documentation is somewhat wrong, I think it suggests to use
"day+" which doesn't work. But I should check the details again.)
The keyword to create ordinal numbers in a date has changed in MkIV.
Unfortunately I didn't manage to figure out how to do the superscript
automatically. Yes, it's 1\highordinalstr{st} like Alan mentioned, but
that only works in "manual mode".

core-con.lua : 1275 :

context.highordinalstr(converters.ordinal(whatordinal,currentlanguage))
Please revert this change and let the user choose between a ordinal in text size and raised small size.

\starttext

\currentdate[day:ord]

\currentdate[day:highord]

\stoptext
