Easter Monday is a significant public holiday in Malta, following the solemn celebrations and observances of Holy Week and Easter Sunday. This day has deep religious roots, marking the resurrection of Jesus Christ, which is a cornerstone event in Christianity.
History and Traditions:
Religious Observances: While Easter Sunday is the pinnacle of joyous celebration, Easter Monday serves as an extended day of reflection and family gatherings. The Maltese, predominantly Roman Catholic, often attend church services throughout Holy Week and Easter.
Family Time: Traditionally, families come together on Easter Monday to spend time with one another. After the austerity of Lent and the intensity of Holy Week, this day allows for relaxation and enjoyment.
Festivities: Given its religious significance, the day itself is more subdued in terms of festivities compared to other local feasts; however, it's still a time for communal joy.
What People Do:
Easter Monday offers a gentle close to the vibrant celebrations that mark Holy Week on the islands, providing citizens with an opportunity for restful family time before returning to their daily routines.
