When is Pancake Day 2029?
Pancake Day 2029
Tuesday, 13 February 2029
1022 days from today.
Pancake Day 2029 — also known as Shrove Tuesday — falls on Tuesday, 13 February 2029. It is the day before Ash Wednesday and the start of Lent, traditionally marked in Britain by making pancakes to use up rich ingredients like eggs, butter, and milk before the Lenten fast.
Why is Pancake Day on this date?
Pancake Day always falls 47 days before Easter Sunday. Easter is a moveable feast set by the first Sunday after the first full moon on or after 21 March (the ecclesiastical spring equinox). That is why the date shifts every year — and why Pancake Day 2029 lands on February 13th.
What to make on Pancake Day 2029
The classic British pancake is thin, lacy, and rolled with lemon and sugar. If you want something different, the same batter rules apply for crepes, while American stacks, Japanese souffle pancakes, and savoury galettes all suit Pancake Day too.
