A public holiday across Vatican City: most employees have the day off.
In 2029 it falls on a Monday, a working day.

Saturday and Sunday · A public holiday does not always close every business. Essential services, shops and some industries keep working, and pay rules differ by country and contract.
Easter Monday is the day after Easter Sunday and the second day of the Easter festival. In most of Western and Central Europe it is a public holiday, and it creates a four-day weekend with Good Friday. The day is also observed in some Orthodox countries, such as Greece, Cyprus, Romania, Serbia, Georgia and North Macedonia, where it follows the Orthodox date, and in the Eastern churches it is called Bright Monday. In some places, such as Poland and Slovakia, the day has a name of its own that refers to the sprinkling traditions of the day.
For most people the holiday is less about church services than about family visits, walks, picnics and meals. In Lutheran churches the Gospel of the day is the walk to Emmaus, and in Austria the Emmausgang commemorates it. Many countries have folk customs of their own, such as the egg-rolling and egg-hunt traditions of Britain and Germany, or the sprinkling and whipping customs of Hungary, Poland, Slovakia and the Czech Republic, in which boys and men pour water or perfume on girls and women or strike their legs with willow twigs. Regional customs vary a lot, so the same date can look quite different depending on where it is celebrated.
