Nationwide public holiday

Orthodox Easter Monday is a nationwide public holiday in Serbia that falls on the day after Orthodox Easter Sunday. It is part of the Easter holiday period in the Serbian calendar.

About Orthodox Easter Monday in Serbia

In Serbia, Orthodox Easter Monday is observed across the country as a public holiday and follows Orthodox Easter Sunday. It extends the Easter period into a second day of rest and family observance, rather than standing as a separate secular commemoration. The holiday is tied to the Serbian Orthodox calendar used for Easter observance in the country, so its date changes from year to year.

Traditions

Customs on Orthodox Easter Monday in Serbia are generally the same as the wider Easter period: people continue family visits, share festive meals, and use the remaining holiday time for gatherings at home. Easter foods such as decorated eggs remain part of the celebration, especially in family settings.

How Orthodox Easter Monday is celebrated in Serbia

Because it follows Easter Sunday, the day is commonly spent more quietly than the main feast day. Many people use it for visiting relatives, finishing Easter meals, or relaxing at home before the regular work week resumes.
