When is Pancake Day in 2023?

Flipping heck, Pancake Day is finally here. Arguably one of the highlights of February, the day is a tradition for many of us across the UK.

Whether you prefer your pancakes with syrup, Nutella, or the classic lemon and sugar, everyone loves wolfing down a few of the tasty treats come Pancake Day. Known to Christians as Shrove Tuesday, the day traditionally serves as a way for Christians to enjoy a final day of indulgence before the start of the Lent.

But for those who don’t follow the religious side of Pancake Day, it is simply a time to enjoy some sweet treats in the company of friends and family. Pancake Day always falls on a different date each year, and depends on which date Easter falls.
