Easter Sunday falls on 17 April and Good Friday on 15 April this year, a week later than last year. Easter is a festival and holiday that, unlike Christmas, doesn’t have a fixed date — it’s celebrated on the first Sunday that follows the full moon that occurs on (or just after) the spring equinox. Does reading that hurt your brain a little? Us too. Better just to Google it every year.
Many of our customers will be using CurrencyFair to send money abroad this Easter. To help plan when to exchange and the expected arrival times of transfers, we are sharing the dates and times that our payments department and banking partners will be open from 14 April - 18 April 2022:
