Palm Sunday is in commemoration of Jesus' entry into Jerusalem in the last week before He was arrested and crucified. People lined His path, or waved palm branches, a symbol at the time of victory. This entry is believed by Christians to have been prophesied in Zechariah.

John 12:12-13

On the next day much people that were come to the feast, when they heard that Jesus was coming to Jerusalem,Took branches of palm trees, and went forth to meet him, and cried, Hosanna: Blessed is the King of Israel that cometh in the name of the Lord.

Palm Sunday and Easter Sunday are both important Christian holidays, but they have different meanings. Palm Sunday commemorates Jesus' triumphant entry into Jerusalem, where people welcomed him with palm branches. It marks the beginning of Holy Week. Easter Sunday, on the other hand, celebrates the resurrection of Jesus from the dead, three days after his crucifixion.
