Easter Holidays in Hong Kong: ØÖØÜ and ØÖØÝ Schedules Easter is one of the most popular holiday periods in Hong Kong. Public holidays on Good Friday and Easter Monday create an extended long weekend for local residents. For the Christian community, Easter Sunday stands as the most important religious celebration of the year. Easter Public Holiday Dates ØÖØÜ‒ØÖØÝ The following official public holiday dates apply to Hong Kong for Easter observances: • ØÖØÜ: Ù Apr (Fri)‒ Good Friday • ØÖØÜ: Ú Apr (Sat)‒ The Day Following Good Friday • ØÖØÜ: Ü Apr (Mon)‒ Easter Monday • ØÖØÜ: Ý Apr (Tue)‒ The Day Following Easter Monday • ØÖØÝ: ØÜ Mar (Fri)‒ Good Friday • ØÖØÝ: ØÝ Mar (Sat)‒ The Day Following Good Friday • ØÖØÝ: Øß Mar (Mon)‒ Easter Monday How Easter Sunday Is Calculated Easter Sunday dates change annually based on a long-standing traditional method. It is defined as the Sunday after the first full moon that occurs on or after Ø× March, the ecclesiastical vernal equinox. This rule places Easter Sunday between ØØ March and ØÛ April each year. Religious and Cultural Observances Hong Kong is home to around one million Christians. Many attend church services during Easter to recognize the crucifixion on Good Friday and the resurrection on Easter Sunday. Families often combine church attendance with celebratory meals at home or in restaurants. Travel and Lifestyle During Easter The Easter long weekend is a top travel period for Hong Kong residents. Many choose trips to mainland China or international destinations. Unlike Lunar New Year, Easter does not carry strong family reunion obligations, and it always falls over a weekend, making travel more convenient. Local Business and Festive Activities Most shops and restaurants remain open during the Easter weekend, although visitor numbers may be lower due to widespread travel. Festive decorations featuring Easter bunnies and Easter eggs appear across streets and retail spaces. Many malls and hotels host Easter egg hunts and craft activities for children.
