Orthodox Easter in 2025 to Fall on April 20
Christian Holiday Celebrates Resurrection of Jesus Christ
Pascha is Principal Feast, Marks Beginning of Paschal Season
Orthodox Easter Sunday, also known as Pascha, will fall on April 20 in 2025. This Christian holiday is the most important feast in the Orthodox Church's liturgical year and celebrates the resurrection of Jesus Christ.
Pascha marks the beginning of the Paschal season, a 40-day period of celebration that ends with the feast of Pentecost. During this time, Orthodox Christians commemorate the events of Holy Week, including the crucifixion and resurrection of Jesus.
The date of Orthodox Easter varies from year to year, as it is calculated according to the Julian calendar. This means that Orthodox Easter can fall anywhere between April 4 and May 8.
