According to the Luni-Solar calendar, this year (2024), Easter Sunday will fall on March 31st, as Good Friday will be celebrated on April 15.
As per Christianity, Easter is observed as the happy day wherein the world was saved, hence it is considered the day of new hope, a new beginning, and positivity.
It is celebrated with joy and happiness around the world, many festivities are done during the festival such as Churches being decorated, religious processions being held, people visiting churches, and offering prayers to the supreme god. Many churches also host special services on the day.
Apart from Christians, some non-Christians also celebrate the day for fun by becoming part of non-traditional festivities of Easter such as the Egg Parade, Egg hunting, etc.
