Easter.
Easter is observed around the same time as Passover.
As far as the first religious holiday that was celebrated, the most supported holiday is the Jewish Passover. However, the oldest holiday that was celebrated is New Years which is a celebration that begun around 4,000 years ago, celebrated by the ancient Babylonians.
The day before Jesus died on the cross was the Jewish Passover and he celebrated the Seder, the passover evening meal that remembers the Jewish exodus from Egypt. This meal is still celebrated to this day and it is very reminiscent of the Catholic mass as bread and wine are passed around the table for all to share.

One of the holiest festivals in the Christian calendar, Easter, is celebrated around the world, with great fanfare and religious fervor. While the religious observations of the festival follow the Christian church, the basic contours of Easter celebration may vary in different countries, due to regional influences.
Scholars believe that the Last Supper was actually a Passover seder (the traditional ritual meal celebrated by the Jews in the spring). As part of the Passover tradition, Jews cannot eat bread or leavening for the 8 days of Passover (because of the story of the Exodus where their bread did not have time to rise), so the bread that Jesus gave the apostles to eat (the symbol that eventually became the Eucharist) was most likely Matzah (the unleavened bread of passover). This also explains why Passover and Easter usually coincide.
It is celebrated around the world.
Those who are Christian do. Just like everywhere else around the world, holidays are celebrated differently by each family according to their personal religious views.
There are around 25 weeks (177 days) between the first day of Passover and the first day of Sukkot.
