When was Lent in 2016?

Lent in 2016 started on Wednesday, the 10th of February (10/2/2016) and continued for 46 days until Saturday, the 26th of March.

How are Lent dates determined?

In Western Christianity Lent begins on Ash Wednesday and concludes on Holy Saturday. The six Sundays in Lent are not counted among the forty days of lent because each Sunday represents a "mini-Easter", a celebration of Jesus' victory over sin and death.
