Easter traditions from around the world
Rome, Italy
On Good Friday, the Pope commemorates the Via Crucis (Way of the Cross) at the
Colosseum: A huge cross with burning torches illuminates the sky as the 24
Stations of the cross are described in several languages. Mass is celebrated on the
evening of Holy Saturday, and on Easter Sunday, thousands of visitors
congregated in St. Peter’s square to await the Pope’s blessing from the church’s
balcony, known as “Urbi et Orbi” (To the city and to the world).
Verges, Spain
On Holy Thursday in the Medieval town of Verges, Spain, the traditional “dansa de
la mort” or “death dance” is performed. The reenact scenes from The Passion,
everyone dresses in skeleton costumes and parades through the street. The
procession ends with frightening skeleton carrying boxes of ashes. The macabre
dance begins at midnight and continuous for three hours into the early morning.

4. Washington, DC
For 130 years, the White House has hosted the Easter Egg Roll on its South Lawn.
The main activity involves rolling a colored hard-boiled egg with a large serving
spoon, but now the event boasts many more amusements, like musical groups, an
egg hunt, sports and crafts. This year’s theme is “Ready, Set, Go!” and will
promote health and wellness, featuring activities that encourage children to lead
healthy and active lives.
Haux, France
Don’t forget a fork if you’re in this southern French town on Easter Monday. Each
year a giant omelet is served up in the town’s main square. And when we say
giant, we mean glant: The omelet uses more than 4.500 eggs and feeds up to
1.000 people. The story goes, when Napoleon and his army were travelling
through the south of France, they stopped in a small town and ate omelets.
Napoleon liked his so much that he ordered the townspeople to gather their eggs
and make a giant omelet for his army the next day.
