When is Easter Sunday 2011?

Easter 2011 is Sunday the 24th of April.

Easter Day, as it is also known, always falls on a Sunday, but the date does change; Easter can fall between March 22nd and April 25th, this is because the actual date worked out by the phases of the moon and the solar year, this is called the lunisolar calendar.

The way it is worked out is very complex, and totally beyond me, but if you are interested you can find all the information on wikipedia – Easter#Date_of_Easter, if you can make sense of it please do let me know.
