To think this is the latest I’ve known Easter?

[LargeLisaCorf]

I’ve never known Easter later than this. Anyone else?

Not later, but Easter was this same weekend in 2019

Apparently it was April 24th in 2011 and the latest it can possibley be is April 25th (last occurred in 1943).

List of dates for Easter - Wikipedia

Google says that the latest it can be is 25th April and it will be on that date next in 2038!

...earliest possible date for Easter is March 22 and the latest possible date is April 25

This is what Google says ⬆️ so it's almost as late as can be.

Edit: Cross Post while I was typing!

It was 21st April in 2019 and will be again in 2030.

I have 2 nieces. One born on 10 April, the Thursday after Easter. One born on 20 April which was Good Friday. Always fascinates me.

It’s my birthday weekend and every few years Easter falls on it. A handful of times has been later (ie after my birthday)

DD was born on Easter Sunday 2000. It was 23rd April

My daugher and I are both born in April, Easter falls alot on our birthdays.

Also my sister's birthday today and I have know it to coincide with Easter weekend many times over the years.

It was late in 2011 too..think Easter Sunday was 19th. I took partner to Rome for his 40th that year

I remember one year when Easter Monday and the May Bank Holiday were on successive Mondays.

It's my birthday this weekend too. It has fallen over the Easter weekend several times in my lifetime.

No, my sisters birthday is the 22nd and quite often since she was born almost 30 years ago , her birthday has fallen on our very close to Easter weekend.

DD was born on Easter Monday 2011 which was the 25th

That was 2011, and we also had a bank holiday for Prince William’s wedding in between! (on the Friday)

S2 was born in 2003, the day before Mothering Sunday.

This year his birthday was the day before Mothering Sunday.

Last year his birthday was Good Friday (which it also was when he was 10).

Dd’s birthday is 24th. Once her birthday was Easter Sunday.

Yes - we got married in Good Friday 2011, which was the 22nd!

When’s it normally? How is it decided?
I should probably just google this…

edit: the moon decides, apparently. Most frequently March 16th

It was this exact date in 2003 because my nephew was born the day before

That was 2011, and we also had a bank holiday for Prince William’s wedding in between! (on the Friday)

Ah, I wasn't working Fridays then. I did watch the wedding, but the BH didn't affect my working week.

My birthday is April 25th and Easter was around then in 2000.

I know Mothering Sunday (3 weeks before Easter) was in April in 2000 because it was the day I brought DS2 home from hospital

It was very late April in 2011. I missed a planned Easter weekend with my family and inlaws to go and see my Dad who was dying of cancer. I spent Easter Sunday with him, it was an incredibly warm day and we sat outside in the garden for a while. He died 8 days later.

What actually decides when Easter is?
