Writer's picture: Jenny HuntJenny Hunt

23rd March 2021


Easter is a Christian religious celebration, but over time, like many other holidays, has become increasingly commercial. Easter eggs, baskets, bonnets, and bunnies, as well as Spring chicks, crosses and Spring flowers are symbols that we also associate with Easter nowadays.


When Is Easter this year?

Sunday, 4th April 2021.


Is Covid affecting how we celebrate Easter?

According to the National Retail Federation, taking Covid into consideration, last year consumers in the US were planning to spend Easter in the following ways:

  • Cook a meal - 51%

  • Visit friends and family virutally - 34%

  • Go to church virtually - 32%

  • Plan an Easter egg hunt at home - 24%

  • Open gifts - 12%


What Do People Spend Their Money On At Easter?

In 2019, Easter spend in the US was on the following:

  • Candy (87%)

  • Food (85%)

  • Gifts (59%)

  • Greeting Cards (46%)

  • Clothing (46%)

  • Decorations (41%)

  • Flowers (38%)

  • Other (20%)


Interestingly, these figures have remained pretty consistent over the last decade, apart from decorations which show a 9% increase and greeting cards which show a 6% decline. Unfortunately, due to Covid, the National Retail Forum did not produce its annual Easter survey last year.
