Roman Holiday

What is the most important Roman Catholic holiday? Christmas or Easter?

While both are certainly important, Easter is the greatest feast of the liturgical year.

This is shown by the liturgy itself. We prepare for Christmas by the 4-week season of Advent, and the Christmas season lasts about 2 weeks.

We prepare for Easter by the 6-week season of Lent, and the Easter season lasts for 7 weeks (from Easter Sunday to Pentecost Sunday). So the greater length of time shows the importance of the feast.

Easter is the feast of our salvation, when through his death and resurrection Christ redeemed the world.
