Here are the dates of the most important (moving) Christian holidays through 2030. Many holidays move in the calendar year based off of the date of Easter, which is tied to the lunar Jewish calendar instead of the solar Gregorian calendar. The Eastern Orthodox church calculates some holidays different from other Christian denominations; the dates for those are given their own page.
