Pancake Day, also known as Shrove Tuesday, is calculated as the day before Ash Wednesday, which marks the beginning of Lent in the Christian calendar. Lent is a 40-day period of fasting leading up to Easter, and Ash Wednesday is determined by the date of Easter, which varies each year. Easter is calculated as the first Sunday after the first full moon following the vernal equinox, typically falling between March 22 and April 25. Consequently, Pancake Day can occur anywhere between February 3 and March 9.
