Palm branches are a symbol of peace and victory, and they were laid down in Jesus’ path as he rode into Jerusalem – leading to the name Palm Sunday.
Many will be celebrating by attending Palm Sunday parades, or going to Mass, where they will be given small crosses made of palms to take home with them.
These are burnt later on to create the ashes put on peoples’ heads on Ash Wednesday the following year.
Here’s a roundup of Palm Sunday quotes, pictures and messages to help you celebrate the day.
