Lent ends on Easter Sunday. That date can differ depending on what calendar a Christian follows. This year, both Western Christians and Eastern Orthodox Christians will celebrate Easter/Ressurection Day/Pascua on April 8, 2007.
You can find a listing of these dates at the following address:

Liturgically, Lent ends when the Mass of the Lord's Supper begins on Holy Thursday night. So more or less, sunset on the Thursday before Easter. This year that will be April 5.
Easter doesn't begin until the end of the Easter Vigil mass on Holy Saturday. Again, more or less, Easter Sunday morning. The time in between then is called Triduum. (But if you call it Lent, that's not really going to hurt anything. Many Catholics don't know what Triduum is. So I'm okayish with saying that Lent ends with Easter Sunday, even if it's not quite right.)
