How Many Days Until Easter?
Easter Sunday 2027 falls on March 28, 2027. This page shows exactly how many days until Easter 2027 are left right now, down to the second. Whether you're planning an egg hunt, a family gathering, holiday travel, or just counting down with the kids, the live timer above always reflects the correct number of days, hours, minutes, and seconds remaining.
Unlike fixed-date holidays such as Christmas or Halloween, Easter's date is tied to the lunar calendar — the first Sunday after the first full moon following the spring equinox — so it moves around between late March and late April every year. That makes it easy to lose track of exactly how far away it is. Once Easter has come and gone, this countdown automatically resets to next year's date, so the page never goes stale.
