Easter is celebrated on different days each year because it is based on the lunar calendar, which is different from the solar calendar that most people use. The date of Easter is determined by the first full moon after the vernal equinox, which can vary from year to year. This is why Easter falls on different dates, usually between March 22 and April 25.
