Why St George's Day has been moved from 23 April this year
Church of England has changed the date this year because no saint's day can take place in the week before or after Easter
www.independent.co.ukSt George’s Day is traditionally celebrated on April 23 each year, as the feast day of England’s patron saint. However, in 2025 the Church of England moved the date because Holy Week/Easter week rules shift saint days to the Monday after Easter; as a result, St George’s Day observances were adjusted that year to a different Monday date. For 2026, the standard date of April 23 is again commonly referenced, though some events or local celebrations may vary depending on church calendars or local organizers. If you’re trying to plan around specific events or a particular year, I can look up the exact date and any movements for that year.
