Easter in Åland Islands

This year, Easter falls in mid-April, a time associated with the first warming rays of spring sunshine, nature slowly coming back to life, and longer, brighter days that invite delightful outdoor activities. Children eagerly prepare for the Easter egg hunt, dress up as colorful Easter witches, and set off on adventures with friends and family.

During the Easter dinner, loved ones gather around the table to enjoy delicious food and good company. It is a time filled with joy, hope, and anticipation for what lies ahead—a season for togetherness, traditions, and savoring great food in the tranquil surroundings of the archipelago.
