Easter Sunday

Paschal holiday morning

Easter Sunday is the Christian holiday celebrating the resurrection of Jesus Christ, observed on a Sunday in spring.

The date shifts each year, falling between late March and late April, determined by a lunar calendar formula.

For many Christians, it is the most important day of the religious year, marked by church services, family gatherings, and celebratory meals.

Secular traditions include Easter egg hunts and visits from the Easter Bunny.
