when is pentecost

Pentecost is a Christian holiday celebrated on the 50th day after Easter Sunday, which is the seventh Sunday after Easter. It commemorates the descent of the Holy Spirit upon the Apostles and other followers of Jesus Christ. Because Easter is a moveable feast, Pentecost is also a moveable feast and does not have a fixed date. For example, in 2025, Pentecost will fall on Sunday, June 8.
