The UK Easter 2024 report forms part of the publisher's Retail Occasions series, and offers a comprehensive insight into the consumer dynamics and spending habits of UK consumers for Easter. The report analyses the major players, the main trends, and consumer attitudes.
The proportion of consumers that stated that they bought something for Easter fell in 2024, as fewer consumers chose to spend on the event. The proportion of Easter shoppers purchasing food & drink held up better than other categories, though did still fall year-on-year. This better performance was due to consumers spontaneously picking up Easter bits, such as chocolate, within their usual trips to grocers and convenience stores.
