Dear Peter,
Thanks for the question.
Lent ends when the Holy Thursday Mass begins.
Technically, the Triduum (Holy Thursday — to — Easter) is its own season.
Most Catholics continue to keep the Lenten disciplines through Easter, so in that sense, you could say that Lent ends when the Easter Vigil begins, but that is only in the popular sense, not in the formal sense.
Peace,
Bob Kirby
