On April 18, local time, the White House resumed its Easter Egg Roll on the South Lawn of the White House, which had been interrupted for two years due to the new crown epidemic.
Easter is an important traditional festival in the West, and "rolling eggs" is one of the traditional celebrations.
U.S. President Biden and his wife Jill made a speech on the balcony on the south side of the White House, welcoming the people to the White House and wishing them a happy Easter.
The White House expects about 30,000 people to attend the event that day.
According to Western tradition, Easter is the first Sunday after the full moon of the spring equinox, which is April 17 this year.
Traditionally, the South Lawn of the White House is open to the public on the first Monday after Easter each year.
The White House Easter Egg Roll, which began in 1878, is the White House's oldest and most attended public event, and was canceled in 2020 and 2021 due to the coronavirus pandemic.
