Pentecost Monday is the day after Pentecost Sunday and the second day of the Pentecost festival. In German-speaking countries it is Pfingstmontag, in France Lundi de Pentecôte, in the Netherlands Tweede Pinksterdag, and in English-speaking countries it was traditionally called Whit Monday. In Orthodox countries, such as Greece, it is known as the Monday of the Holy Spirit. The Monday has a long tradition in Central and Western Europe, where it is regularly used for pilgrimages and fairs. It is also known as the Second Day of Pentecost. It is observed with local customs.
For most people the holiday is a spring day off, used for family excursions, hikes, fairs and regional folk events. In Cyprus it is the day of the Kataklysmos, the Festival of the Flood, when people gather at the seaside and take part in water games and music. In Germany, the Netherlands and Belgium many people travel in the long weekend that begins at Pentecost, and in several regions traditions such as fairs and processions are held. The date is also a major day for excursions, regional markets and open-air music events, and in parts of Germany and Austria, traditional Pentecost riding festivals take place.
