How do they celebrate Easter in Chile?

In Chile, do they celebrate Easter the same way we do in the States? As in giant bunny rabbit, chocolate eggs, etc? What other historical or cultural items of interest can you tell me about Chile? Thanks@!

The Sunday before Easter in Chile is celebrated as Palm Sunday or also called Domingo de Ramos. The celebration is held with a mass or in some places as a procession. On Good Friday there is fasting and people eat fish instead of meat. There are programs on radio referred to as "mourning". Mourning programs are special music and this continues until Sunday morning with the resurrection of Jesus.

In towns around the capital of Santiago people have been celebrating a religious fiesta since the 16th century. The fiesta is known as Quasimodo and is of Latin origin, and represents the first word of an opening prayer which is said in the mass that occurs the first Sunday after Easter. During Spanish times the day on which Quasimodo is held was the customary day for priests to take Communion to the old and the sick who had been unable to go to church during Easter. Sometimes attacks occurred on priests so a group of guards would accompany the priests safely whilst performing their duties. After the priests performed the Sacrament, the day ended with rodeos and "horsemanship contests".

At the finish of the day celebrations occur with the Eucharist in an open-air mass. The Fiesta Quasimodo is full of spectacular color, song, and excitement for the huasos which are cowboys or horsemen because it has continued for so many generations.

So, in conclusion, no. It is not celebrated with bunnies and colored eggs, it is a religious holiday in Chile and all of Latin America, so no one dressed like a bunny anywhere on Easter in that region.
