We know that the Resurrection of Christ was on the first day of the week, and that Pentecost was on the first day of the week.

But do we know on which day of the week Christ entered Heaven?

He presented himself alive to them after his suffering by many proofs, appearing to them during forty days and speaking about the kingdom of God. (Acts 1:3, ESV)

The Larger Catechism (answer 53) takes that verse as a literal time referent, and teaches, "forty days after His resurrection, He, in our nature, and as our head, triumphing over enemies, visibly went up into the highest heavens..."
