Easter occurs on different dates each year. It is always on a Sunday, though. The time when Easter is celebrated differs because it has to do with that specific year. You have to check the calendar for the year you want to know.

In Western Christianity the date of Easter is determined by using the Gregorian calendar:

2012 - Sunday, April 8

2013 - Sunday, March 31

2014 - Sunday, April 20

2015 - Sunday, April 5

2016 - Sunday, March 27

In Eastern Christianity (Orthodox Easter) the date of Easter is determined by using the Julian Calendar:

2012 - Sunday, April 15

2013 - Sunday, May 5

2014 - Sunday, April 20

2015 - Sunday April 12

2016 - Sunday, May 1

In 2010, Easter Sunday will fall on April 4th.
So you know:

  • Easter is a moveable feast, it has no fixed date like Christmas.
  • Since 325 CE Easter is the first Sunday after the full moon (the Paschal Full Moon) following the vernal equinox.
  • The date of Easter varies between March 22 and April 25.

The last time Easter Sunday fell on April 1 was in 1956. The next time it will fall on April 1 is in 2018. After that, within the 21st century, April 1 will be the date of Easter Sunday in 2029 and 2040, and after that, 2108.
