About Easter Sunday 2027
Easter Sunday is the Christian holiday celebrating the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead, described in the New Testament as occurring on the third day following his crucifixion. It is the culmination of Holy Week, following Lent, Palm Sunday, and Good Friday.
Unlike fixed-date holidays, Easter is a 'movable feast' calculated as the first Sunday after the first full moon (the Paschal Full Moon) occurring on or after the vernal equinox. In addition to church services, common family traditions include decorating Easter eggs, organizing egg hunts, and sharing springtime festive brunches.
In 2027, Easter Sunday will be celebrated on Sunday, March 28. Tracking the days left is helpful for booking spring travel and preparing family gatherings.
