Easter Monday is the day following Easter Sunday, falling on different dates each year between March 23 and April 26. It's a public holiday in many countries, especially across Europe and the Commonwealth nations. While not a major religious observance, it extends the Easter celebration and is often part of a four-day weekend. Traditions vary by country but commonly include family gatherings, outdoor activities, and local customs such as egg rolling competitions or water-dousing rituals in some Eastern European countries. In many places, it marks the end of the Easter period and serves as a relaxed day for people to enjoy spring weather and leftover Easter treats before returning to work or school.
