The celebration is observed during Holy Week as part of the Paschal Triduum , the period of three days from Holy Thursday  to Easter Day. The holiday is celebrated on the Friday preceding Easter Sunday, and may coincide with the Jewish observance of Passover.
The Crucifixion of Jesus is believed to have occured on a Friday. The estimated year of Good Friday is AD 33 or  AD 34

The Christian account of Jesus crucifixion

The Jewish high priests accused Jesus of blasphemy and sentenced him to death. Because the Jews did not have the right to have a man killed without the approval of the Roman governor, they had to take Jesus to Pontius Pilate. Even though Pilate found him innocent, he feared the crowds and let them decide Jesus' fate. The Jewish chief priests decided to crucify him.
Jesusu was publicly whipped and punished before crucifixion. Then he was taken to Golgotha where he would be crucified. A mixture of vinegar, gall, and myrrh was offered to him. This drink was said to alleviate some of the suffering, but Jesus refused to drink it. Stake-like nails were driven through his wrists and ankles, fastening him to the cross where he was crucified between two convicted criminals. On the cross Jesus hung for his final agonizing breaths, a period that lasted about six hours bearing the crowds insults and scoffing. Jesus spoke to his mother Mary and the disciple John from the cross. He also cried out to his father,

"My God, my God, why have You forsaken Me?"

Various supernatural events accompany the crucifixion , including darkness, an earthquake, and (in Matthew) the resurrection of saints. Following Jesus' death, his body was removed from the cross and buried in a rock-hewn tomb. According to Christian tradition, Jesus then rose from the dead three days later.

The meaning of Jesus Christ's Day for Christians

Christians believe that Jesus' death on the cross was a knowing and willing sacrifice because he did not mount a defense in his trials. This was undertaken as an "agent of God" to atone for humanity's sin and make salvation possible. That's why Christians have made the crucifix, or cross, one of the defining symbols of Christianity.

Islamic account of Jesus Christ's Day.

Muslims believe Jesus was raised to heaven alive by God. The Qur'an states that he was not crucified or killed but was raised. Muslims also believe that Jesus will return before the end of time. This is the verse which expalins all this in the Qur'an:

That they said (in boast), "We killed Christ Jesus the son of Mary, the Messenger of Allah";- but they killed him not, nor crucified him, but so it was made to appear to them, and those who differ therein are full of doubts, with no (certain) knowledge, but only conjecture to follow, for of a surety they killed him not:-
Nay, Allah raised him up unto Himself; and Allah is Exalted in Power, Wise;-
—Qur'an, sura 4 (An-Nisa) ayat 157-158
