What is Black Saturday?

Benedictine monks singing Vespers on Black Saturday (
Holy Saturday)
The term "Black Saturday" has a number of different meanings. The dates shown on this page are the dates of Black Saturday when used in the context of Christianity, where it refers to the Saturday between
Good Friday and
Easter Sunday, more commonly known as
Holy Saturday or
Easter Eve. It is the last day of
Lent and also the last day of
Holy Week, the week in which Christians prepare for
Easter. It commemorates the one full day that Jesus Christ's body laid in the tomb.
It should not be confused with
Easter Saturday, as, correctly applied, this term is used to refer to the Saturday in
Easter Week (ie. the Saturday
after Easter, not the Saturday between Good Friday and Easter Sunday).
In other common uses the term refers to:
- the Saturday after Black Friday, the beginning of the Christmas shopping season in the United States (also known as Small Business Saturday)
- in France, the Saturday at the end of July or the beginning of August on which road traffic is most dense due to the many holiday departures
- a number of other Saturdays in history that saw massacres, crises, battles or catastrophes (for a comprehensive list see Black Saturday on Wikipedia)
