The word is a Latin Christian liturgical term for a day of appointed rank in the calendar; extending it to the Islamic eid and to Baha'i holy days is a convenience of this classification, not a term those traditions use. 2DirectoryCategoryWell-attestedHolidays & Festivals 1Learn MoreThe feasts This group gathers feasts, the festal days of the religious calendar centred on celebration and, often, shared eating, commemorating a saint, an event of sacred history or a season of the year. In the Christian calendar especially, the feast is a central form of observance. The browser will find the feasts the atlas gathers. The entries describe each feast's occasion, customs and meaning, noting the tradition and the date on which it falls.Gregorian (civil solar)Filter Results27 entriesTraditionAllAfrican Methodist Episcopal Church (3)African Methodist Episcopal Zion Church (3)Amish (3)Anabaptism (3)Anglican Communion (7)Anglicanism (8)Armenian Apostolic Church (6)Assyrian Church of the East (3)Baptist (1)Calvinism (Reformed) (3)Christian Methodist Episcopal Church (3)Church of Cyprus (9)Church of England (11)Church of God (Anderson, Indiana) (1)Church of Greece (9)Church of Ireland (7)Church of Scotland (2)Church of Sweden (9)Church of the Nazarene (2)Coptic Orthodoxy (5)Disciples of Christ (2)Dutch Reformed Church (3)Eastern Orthodoxy (9)Ecumenical Patriarchate of Constantinople (9)Eritrean Orthodox Tewahedo Church (4)Ethiopian Orthodox Tewahedo Church (4)Evangelical Lutheran Church in America (12)Evangelicalism (1)Free Methodist Church (2)Georgian Orthodox Church (9)Global Methodist Church (5)Greek Orthodox Church (9)Latter-day Saints (Mormonism) (1)Lutheranism (12)Maronite Church (6)Mennonites (3)Methodism (5)Moravian Church (3)National Baptist Convention of America (1)Old Believers (9)Oriental Orthodoxy (6)Pentecostalism (2)Presbyterianism (2)Progressive National Baptist Convention (1)Protestantism (2)Roman Catholicism (26)Romanian Orthodox Church (9)Russian Orthodox Church (9)Serbian Orthodox Church (9)The Episcopal Church (8)The United Methodist Church (6)Ukrainian Greek Catholic Church (9)Ukrainian Orthodox Church (9)Wesleyan Church (2)Date TypeAllComputed from another feast (8)Fixed date in its own calendar (19)Observance TypeAllCommemoration of a person or event (5)Feast / celebration (20)Martyrdom remembered (1)Memorial of the dead (1)Nativity / birth remembered (2)Pilgrimage (3)Procession (2)Purification (2)Veneration of a deity or holy figure (9)MonthAllAugust (2)December (2)February (2)January (2)March (1)May (1)November (2)September (3)Origin EraAll100 (1)200 (2)335 (1)336 (1)350 (1)380 (1)384 (1)400 (1)450 (2)500 (2)700 (2)731 (1)998 (1)1000 (1)1246 (1)1423 (1)1531 (1)1673 (1)1858 (1)1917 (1)1925 (1)2000 (1)Place of OriginAllBelgium (1)France (2)Italy (1)Mexico (1)Poland (1)Portugal (1)Status TodayAllLiving tradition, practised today (14)Show ResultsBrowseCompareSelect all 27All SaintsGregorian (civil solar)All Souls' DayGregorian (civil solar)Ascension DayGregorian (civil solar)CandlemasGregorian (civil solar)Christ the KingGregorian (civil solar)ChristmasGregorian (civil solar)Corpus ChristiGregorian (civil solar)Divine Mercy SundayGregorian (civil solar)EpiphanyGregorian (civil solar)Exaltation of the Holy CrossGregorian (civil solar)Feast of the AssumptionGregorian (civil solar)Feast of the Immaculate ConceptionGregorian (civil solar)Maundy ThursdayGregorian (civil solar)MichaelmasGregorian (civil solar)Nativity of the Blessed Virgin MaryGregorian (civil solar)Our Lady of FatimaGregorian (civil solar)Our Lady of GuadalupeGregorian (civil solar)Our Lady of LourdesGregorian (civil solar)Our Lady of Mount CarmelGregorian (civil solar)Our Lady of SorrowsGregorian (civil solar)PentecostGregorian (civil solar)The AnnunciationGregorian (civil solar)The Holy InnocentsGregorian (civil solar)The Sacred Heart of JesusGregorian (civil solar)The TransfigurationGregorian (civil solar)TheophanyGregorian (civil solar)Trinity SundayGregorian (civil solar)Sources1.
