Next time it will be on March 31 will be in 2086,
62-years from NOW.
Easter on March 31 is NOT that uncommon. We have seen them per the fairly standard 11-year cycle going back to 1991.
Easter, your quintessential ‘movable feast’ can fall between March 22 (since it HAS to be after the ECCLESIASTICAL Spring Equinox which is always March 21) and April 25 (i.e., essentially the end of the 28-day lunar month).
11 years gaps are common because we have 7-days in a week & leap years occur every 4 years.
With Easter, given the HIGHLY convoluted algorithm used, you can also get 62-year gaps. That is what we will now have with March 31 — 62-year gap to 2086.
Very occasionally we could have the 11 year gap ADDED to the 62 to give us a 73-year gap. That is what we saw last year with Easter.
Easter is next Sunday.
Easter is always on a Sunday.
Don’t confuse Easter with Good Friday which is never on a Sunday.
