St Patrick's Day
-Friday March 17, 2023

St. Patricks has now become a ten-day festival to honor that rebellion, to celebrate the islands history, to contend with the lasting Irish influence, and to invest in Montserrats future.
Good Friday
-Friday April 7, 2023
Catholic or protestant : The First Council of Nicaea (a gathering of bishops in the early days of Christianity) wanted to find a day to commemorate the crucifixion and resurrection of Christ. This commemoration had to be linked to Jewish holiday traditions, since the last supper of Christ was believed to be a Jewish Passover meal. But the Jewish calendar is based on lunar and solar cycles, so the Easter celebration had to follow the same calendar.
