This weekend of April marks the Easter holiday, and those who celebrate can choose from a variety of events in Santa Clarita to mark the special occasion.

Sunday, April 9 marks Easter Sunday, a religious holiday celebrated by Christians. In Christina faith, it is the day Jesus Christ resurrected after the third day of his burial after crucifixion. 

In Santa Clarita, many people celebrate Easter Sunday, blending the religious holiday with more commercial celebrations as well, including Easter egg hunting or awaiting the Easter bunny.
