When is easter? All dates for 2019, 2020 and 2021

The Easter date varies every year, because Easter is one of the moving holidays. Easter is always celebrated on the first Sunday after the first full moon in spring (spring full moon).

At Easter, Christianity celebrates the resurrection of Jesus Christ. In addition, Easter marks the end of Lent. The following "Easter Joy" lasts 50 days to and including Pentecost.

Especially the kids are looking forward to the holidays, as the Easter bunny comes by and the school holidays are pending (the dates of the Easter holidays differ depending on the state). Here are the most important dates of the next years, so that you do not forget an Easter date. And of course, enjoy Easter egg hunt!
