Easter Sunday 2101
Date this year: 2101-04-17 (Sunday)
Swedish name: Påskdagen
Background
Easter Sunday celebrates the resurrection of Jesus and is the central feast of Christianity. In Sweden, many traditions around Easter are cultural as much as religious, with food, springtime customs, and family time often in focus.
History
Easter has shaped Swedish religious and cultural life for centuries. Church observance has coexisted with seasonal customs—regional folklore, festive meals, and family traditions—that developed alongside the liturgical calendar.
Why is it on this date?
Its date follows the traditional Western (Gregorian) computus rule: the first Sunday after the first full moon on or after the spring equinox (ecclesiastical calculation).
