Eastertide as it is known,begins on Easter Day aka Easter Sunday and lasts for eight days. Many people refer to Easter Eve,quite wrongly,as Easter Saturday and some even call Maunday Thursday as Easter Thursday,once again incorrect. And you are right Dave,the date of the fetival is determined by the phases of the moon,in fact after the first full moon in April(?),as we all know this year it is the 8th.
