Travelers to Italy, especially families, often find themselves spending Easter in Italy. That’s because the holiday always coincides with school calendars when children and teens are off from school for spring break.

Easter Day

This year, Easter Sunday (La Pasqua) falls on April 9, 2023, the same date as it does in the U.S. It is a public holiday when almost everything is closed.

Easter Monday

Similar to some 116 other countries around the world, Italy celebrates Easter Monday the very next day, which is also a public holiday. Easter Monday falls on April 10th this year.
