The festival of All Saints, also sometimes known as "All Hallows," or "Hallowmas," is a feast celebrated in their honour. All Saints is also a Christian formula involving all the faithful saints and martyrs, known or unknown. The Roman Catholic holiday (Festum omnium sanctorum) falls on November 1, followed by All Souls' Day on November 2, and is a festival of the first rank, with a vigil and an octave. The Eastern Orthodox Church's All Saints is the first Sunday after Pentecost and as such marks the close of the Easter season. 2, record 3, English, - All%20Saints%20Day

La Toussaint est une fête catholique, célébrée le 1er novembre, au cours de laquelle sont honorés l'ensemble des saints reconnus par l'Église catholique romaine. La Toussaint précède d'un jour la fête des Morts, dont la solennité a été officiellement fixée au 2 novembre deux siècles après la création de la Toussaint. Dans plusieurs pays européens, comme la France, la Toussaint étant un jour férié et chômé, c'est ce jour-là que les gens ont pris l'habitude d'aller se recueillir dans les cimetières, et entretenir les tombes des défunts. 3, record 3, French, - la%20Toussaint
