What is Epiphany?
Adoration of the Kings, by Gerard David. National Gallery, London
Epiphany is a Christian feast day celebrated annually on January 6 that is also known as
Three Kings Day and
Theophany. Epiphany means "manifestation" as it commemorates the first time Jesus' divinity manifested itself through the visit of the Three Kings (also known as the Magi or Wise Men) and through his baptism in the river Jordan. It is a significant event in the church calendar as the celebration of the
Baptism of Jesus.
Epiphany is the starting day of Epiphanytide (the Epiphany season), the liturgical period that follows
Christmastide (the
Christmas season) and continues until
Ash Wednesday and the beginning of
Lent (the Lenten season). It is preceded by
Epiphany Eve on January 5.
Many churches celebrate Epiphany on the Sunday before or after, especially in countries where Epiphany is not a public holiday.
So-called "
king cakes", named after the three biblical kings, are eaten on Epiphany and during the following Epiphany season up until
Fat Tuesday.
