Orthodox Easter Sunday 2026 in Belarus

Many Orthodox churches base their Easter date on the Julian calendar, which often differs from the Gregorian calendar that is used by many western countries. Therefore the Orthodox Easter period often occurs later than the Easter period that falls around the time of the March equinox.

Is Orthodox Easter Sunday a Public Holiday?

Orthodox Easter Sunday is not a public holiday. It falls on Sunday, April 12, 2026 and most businesses follow regular Sunday opening hours in Belarus.

It is common to crack or smash painted eggs on Orthodox Easter Day.
