When is Easter 2023?

Despite its ambiguous name, Easter is an important event for Christians all over the world. It marks the resurrection of Jesus Christ and the beginning of spring in the northern hemisphere. The celebrations last for a week and are based on the lunisolar calendar, a seven day week and the cycle of phases of the moon.

While not the most popular holiday, Easter still manages to make it into the official calendar. It is a public holiday in some Western nations, including the United Kingdom. It is not a federal holiday in the US. Nevertheless, many people take the opportunity to enjoy an extended weekend and give their family members the gifts of love, joy and happiness.

As with most observances, the Easter 2023 date hasn't been decided yet. However, there are some indications that it will be in April. Some cities let children skip school for the long holiday weekend. This can affect your day to day activities and may require you to check with your supervisor.

It is also worth noting that the actual Easter ceremony is held in different parts of the globe. While the ceremony may vary by religion, the date remains the same. Some churches use the Julian calendar, named after Julius Caesar, while others continue to follow the Gregorian calendar.

One of the best things about the Easter holiday is the food. Hot cross buns, chocolate eggs and egg rolling are all part of the celebration.
