Good Friday (from the meanings "pious", "holy" of the word "good" - Good Friday is therefore also known as Holy Friday) is a religious holiday observed primarily by Christians commemorating the crucifixion of Jesus Christ and his death at Calvary (Golgotha).

It is part of Holy Week (Easter Week), the annual Christian observance commemorating Jesus' last week on earth and the events leading up to his resurrection two days later on Easter Sunday, and may coincide with the Jewish observance of Passover.

It is preceded by Holy Thursday (Maundy Thursday) and followed by Holy Saturday (often referred to - wrongly - as Easter Saturday).

It is also known as Great Friday, Easter Friday (though this term correctly refers to the following Friday, the Friday in Easter Week) and Black Friday (not to be confused with "Black Friday" in late November, the name given to the first day of the Christmas shopping season in the United States).

Good Friday is a public holiday in many countries but not in the United States.
