Last Easter and next Easter
Easter around the world
The day does not begin everywhere at once. Choose a city to compare when Easter Sunday starts there with the start in New York.
Countdown pages use your own clock, so the day count drops at your midnight. A reader in Auckland sees it change many hours before a reader in Vancouver.
You can use the same menu on other days of the year. It always compares the start of the day in two places, so it works for any date, not only Easter Sunday.
About Easter
Easter Sunday is the Christian celebration of the resurrection of Jesus. It moves each year, and in Western churches it falls on the first Sunday after the first full moon of spring.
Whether you look forward to Easter Sunday or only need to get ready for it, the days left are the same. This page shows them in days, weeks, sleeps and more.

Planning for Easter
Give yourself a margin. Aim to finish preparing a few days before Easter Sunday, so a delay or missed delivery does not spoil the day.
Switch between units to find the one that fits your task. All of them count to the same Easter Sunday and always agree with each other.
On the day itself the page shows that today is Easter Sunday. It then starts counting to the next one, so you can keep it open all year without any changes.
If you are saving for Easter Sunday, divide your target by the weeks left. The result is the amount to set aside each week, and it changes as the date nears.
The figures on this page come from the calendar rules for the date. For official closures and holidays, check the source linked on this page or your local notice.
