🐰 Easter Monday Countdown
When is Easter Monday?
Easter Monday is always the day immediately after Easter Sunday, so like Easter itself, its date moves each year with the lunar-calendar calculation.
The history of Easter Monday
Easter Monday extends the Easter celebration by one additional day and is a public holiday in many countries, including parts of Canada, the UK, and much of Europe, though it is not a federal holiday in the United States. Traditions vary widely, from church services and family meals to the White House Easter Egg Roll, a tradition in the U.S. dating back to 1878.
Because its date depends entirely on Easter Sunday, Easter Monday follows the same moveable-feast calculation — the first Sunday after the first full moon following the spring equinox, plus one day.
