Calculate the date of Easter for any year as well as Good Friday, Ascension Day, and Pentecost.
The Easter Calculator tells you the date of Easter for any year. Easter is the first Sunday after the first full moon following the vernal equinox, so its date varies each year between March 22 and April 25.
The calculator is free, works in your browser without registration, and shows the result as soon as you change the values. The calculation is done on your device, and the information you enter is not sent anywhere.
The date of Easter is calculated using the Meeus–Jones–Butcher algorithm of the Gregorian calendar. Good Friday is two days before, Easter Monday is the day after, Ascension Day is 39 days after, and Pentecost is 49 days after Easter.
In 2026, Easter Sunday is April 5. Good Friday is April 3, Easter Monday is April 6, and Ascension Day is May 14. With default settings, the calculator gives the result: Easter Sunday April 5, 2026.
For those planning vacations, trips, events, and work shifts, as well as anyone who wants to know the holidays in the coming years.
