Easter Monday HistoryEaster Monday commemorates the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead, as noted in the New Testament of the Bible, marking the end of the Holy Week. Specifically, it is celebrated on the day after Easter Sunday, a day of joy and celebration. Easter Monday, though not as significant as Easter Sunday, provides continuity to the resurrection narrative. Easter Monday has been observed in Christian communities around the world since the 2nd century. In Australia, it became formally recognised with the establishment of the Church in the country in the 19th century. The day holds particular relevance for Australians as it concludes a four-day long weekend that begins with Good Friday. This period is much anticipated and enjoyed by many, given the warm autumn weather typically experienced across most parts of the country during this time. Easter Monday is seen as a day to relax and enjoy the outdoors. Families often choose this day for outings or picnics. Various sports events, such as the Australian Football League games, are held on Easter Monday. Other cultural events also take place, including the Sydney Royal Easter Show and the National Folk Festival. Attention-grabbing activities such as the Stawell Gift foot race also take place on Easter Monday. Easter Monday in Australia occurs on the day after Easter Sunday, which falls on the first Sunday following the full moon that appears on or after the spring equinox on March 21. This results in the observance falling anytime between March 22 and April 25 inclusively. Top facts about Easter Monday
