Easter Countdown Timer

Easter Sunday celebrates the resurrection of Jesus in Christian tradition. Families and communities also mark the day in many other ways; its date changes from year to year.

For some, Easter centers on worship; for others, the day includes a family meal or seasonal activities. The countdown uses the Western church calendar, which can place Easter on a different date from Orthodox observances. It reaches zero at the beginning of the Sunday in your local time zone.
