Why the date moves
Easter moves each year. It is the first Sunday after the first full moon on or after the March equinox, which places it between 22 March and 25 April.
Which weekday does Easter Sunday usually fall on?
Across the next twenty years the weekday is not evenly spread. Here is how often it lands on each day:
| Weekday | Times in 20 years |
|---|---|
| Sunday | 20 (most common) |
| Monday | 0 |
| Tuesday | 0 |
| Wednesday | 0 |
| Thursday | 0 |
| Friday | 0 |
| Saturday | 0 |
Because the rule fixes the weekday rather than the date, Easter Sunday lands on the same day every single year and the calendar date is what moves.

From today there are 185 days to go, which is 26 full weeks plus 3 days. Of those, roughly 54 are weekend days. For a second-by-second countdown see the Easter Sunday countdown, or work out any other span with the date calculator.
