I wonder why Good Friday doesn't get bunting.

It’s probably because it’s traditionally relatively solemn, given like the Queen’s funeral it commemorates a person’s death.

Likely the Good Friday Agreement: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Good_Friday_Agreement

The Good Friday agreement was named after the day it was signed on, not the other way around.

Good Friday is the Friday before Easter Monday. In Christianity, in symbolises the day Christ died and Monday was the day he rose.
