About Easter
Easter Sunday falls on the first Sunday after the first ecclesiastical full moon on or after 21 March, so it can be anywhere from 22 March to 25 April in Western churches. Good Friday comes two days before and Easter Monday the day after — both are public holidays in the UK, Australia and much of Europe. Orthodox Easter often falls later because it uses the Julian calendar.
