What is Easter Saturday?

Easter Saturday marks the end of Easter Week
The term "Easter Saturday", when applied correctly, refers to the Saturday 6 days
after the Christian festival of
Easter. However, the term is often used colloquially to mean
Holy Saturday, the
Holy Week observance that falls between
Good Friday and
Easter Sunday, but this usage is
incorrect.
In the liturgy of Western Christianity Easter Saturday is the last day of
Easter Week and is sometimes referred to as the Saturday of Easter Week or Saturday in Easter Week. It is the day preceding the "Octave Day of Easter" (the Sunday after Easter, also known as St. Thomas Sunday or Divine Mercy Sunday), which is the last day of the Octave of Easter (the eight-day period ("octave") in
Eastertide that starts on Easter Sunday and concludes with the following Sunday).
In the liturgy of Eastern Christianity Easter Saturday is referred to as
Bright Saturday and marks the end of
Bright Week.
The earliest possible date for Easter Saturday is March 28, the latest possible date is May 1.
