How long does Easter last for Christian Catholics?
50 days
The Church celebrates the Easter season
(also known as "Eastertide") for 50 days,
culminating with the feast of Pentecost,
where Scripture (Acts Ch.2 Verses 1-31)
tells us that the Holy Spirit descended on the
Apostles.
What is the 50 days after Easter for the
Christian Catholic Church?
On Pentecost, the Holy Spirit gave the
disciples the strength to fulfill their
commission to spread the Good News of
Jesus. The Church marks this day through
a special liturgical celebration: The Solemnity
of Pentecost, on the fiftieth day of
Easter concludes the Easter season.
