Easter is a Christian holiday that marks the resurrection of Jesus, according to the Christian faith, on the third day after he was crucified and buried in Jerusalem. Easter is celebrated in all Christian churches, but on different dates. It is always celebrated Sunday of the week and always near the beginning of spring.
Holy Week, the last week of the 40 days of fasting, begins on Palm Sunday and ends on Sunday, which is Easter Day and the day Jesus is resurrected. In most European countries, unlike the United States, it is customary to extend Easter and celebrate for two days - Sunday and Monday of the week.
Easter is the holiest holiday in the Christian calendar (though a few tiny fringe streams, like the Quakers, do not indicate it). The holiday is recognized as a formal holiday in most Christian traditions, and apart from ceremonies in honor of Jesus' resurrection, ceremonies and games are celebrated in the spring.
