I have an iPhone 7+ on iOS 11.2.5 and Easter is not on the calendar. I have checked US Holidays in the settings. Why is Easter the only holiday NOT on the calendar? It's more significant than April Fool's Day, which IS on the calendar.
iPhone 7 Plus, iOS 11.2.5
You won't find most religious holidays on the US Holiday calendar. You won't find Easter, Good Friday, Hanukkah, etc. You can find religious holiday calendars available in the App Store.

It takes seconds to add the dates you observe your religious observations and you only need to do it on one device before it replicates across the rest. The Calendar app does not prevent you from doing this. Your question has been asked and answered but here it is again:
Easter is not Shown on the iPhone calendar because Apple is under no obligation to add any religious observations of any faith, but you can add them manually. Furthermore you can let Apple know of your concerns on the feedback website.
So there it is; asked and answered.
Have a Hoppy Easter! 🙂
Seems Apple has removed religious holidays from the calendar. You have the option to subscribe to one from a number of different sources. I don't have one here at work, however there are a number of other threads about this and they all contain sources for calendar subscriptions. Up to you how you decide to proceed.
Apparently it is not a shameful issue, it is some type of bug. Some people have Easter in their US Holidays calendar and some do not. My US Holidays calendar is under iCloud calendars and several other people I checked who have Easter are the same configuration. Others have it under something different and no Easter. Call AppleCare or send feedback here: Feedback - iPhone - Apple
Leave the editorializing out, just report it.
Easter is not a US holiday.

If they don’t do religious holidays why is Christmas Eve & Christmas showing up on mine . But not Easter? Does Apple have a problem with Just Easter for some reason?
Christmas is an official U.S. holiday. Easter is not.
you can manually add and share custom events over multiple devices

additionally you can go to apple.com/feedback and let them know of your concern.
Why Easter is not on the calendar would have to be answered by those people that create/program the calendar, Apple. However, this is a user to user support forum, and Apple does not participate here. Speculation about Apple services and decisions is prohibited by the Terms of Service of this forum. To get the real answer, you would have to ask Apple.
The iPhone’s Calendar Settings offer Alternative Calendars, such as the Islamic Calendar, as well as Hebrew and Chinese alternatives... but no Western Christian calendar...
(I have already sent feedback to Apple)
Early this Morning, @AppleSupport tweeted the following reply in regards to Easter not appearing in their US Calendar:
“We'd be happy to look into this with you! To start, feel free to DM us which device and OS we're working with, and we'll go from there:..”(tweet included Twitter link for DM)
After I DM Apple Support, they replied:
“Thank you for reaching out to us. We’ve heard reports of the behavior you're describing, and it’s currently under review. We don’t have a solution at this time, but recommend that you keep your software up-to-date.
Thanks for reaching out to share your feedback with us.”
That response was posted a long time ago, not today, like Feb 15th
Before they put the dates back along with a lot of other Religious dates, I think it is great.
Not sure why that post is listed as Feb 27, 2018
Unless someone is playing games.
This issue was solved a week or more ago.
Send feedback if you want. We can’t speculate about Apple’s reasoning.
Glad to see some are happy with their calendar now fuller...
{The Support article I'd seen about Calendar suggested each
country had its own version; or use info there to import one
from google or other sources had been an option of a sort.}
Not sure if all versions of the Calendar would show recent
additions, only those using iCloud; unless recent download
update. I've not checked my most-recent Mac calendar;
and my iPad Mini1.1 (iOS 9.3.3?) didn't show Easter, etc.
Noted there were listed iOS calendar apps, but didn't look.
Maybe from my iPhone -- to cruise through App Store?
I prefer analog mechanical automatic watches, and paper
calendars because they both work when power goes out.
Pay to have a vintage means to see when duh holidaze, is.
We've nearly always celebrated 'hoppy eatster' too.
A friend's retriever down the road a bit, a Lab who liked
to bring stuff back and also barked a lot. I renamed him
'Sir BarksAlot' ~ it stuck: He also arrived when called.
So hopefully those who don't use iCloud calendar across
their iOS and macOS devices, can get along with an App.
Perhaps Vatican has an App, with real Easter, Lent & etc?
I'm not buying it...!😎
Would you like Apple to include Easter in the calendar?
Apple already included it it days ago.
Are you upset that other religious obligations were added that you not agree with?
That's Apple's policy, we can't discuss it.
