When you hear the name Rome, the history of Christianity comes to mind. In case you are forgetting, Rome is the home of the Roman Catholic. This means that Christian celebrations are taken seriously in this eternal city, including the Easter celebrations.
Rome awakens with religious fervor during Easter week. Palm Sunday will mark the start, with pilgrims flocking to St. Peter’s Square, carrying blessed palm leaves. Holy Week follows, a time for reflection.
On Maundy Thursday, March 28th, the city will remember Jesus’ Last Supper. Good Friday, March 29th, brings a somber mood, culminating in the moving “Via Crucis” procession with the Pope at the Colosseum.
Easter Sunday, March 31st, will explode with joy! A grand mass led by the Pope, followed by the “Urbi et Orbi” blessing, a message to the city and the world. Don’t miss the “Scoppio del Carro,” a dazzling fireworks display, marking Easter’s triumph.
But Easter isn’t just about faith; “Pasquetta,” Easter Monday, will be a joyous family affair with picnics in sprawling parks like Villa Borghese and a delightful way to soak in spring’s arrival.
Witnessing Easter in Rome will be a unique blend of history, faith, and vibrant celebration. From solemn processions to joyous family picnics, the Eternal City will offer a glimpse into centuries-old traditions while embracing the spirit of spring.
